Pakistan Foils Terrorist Attack on Air Force Base, Eliminating 9 Fighters

Pakistani troops successfully thwarted an attack on an air force training base in Mianwali, central Pakistan, killing nine attackers. The attack, claimed by the newly founded group Tehreek-e-Jihad Pakistan (TJP), comes a day after an ambush on a military convoy killed 14 soldiers in Baluchistan province. Violence has been on the rise in Pakistan, primarily linked to armed groups like TJP and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). The country is also facing political and economic crises, leading to a decline in law and order. Despite efforts to clear the tribal regions of armed groups, occasional attacks continue.
