In a recent development, security forces thwarted an infiltration attempt at the Pakistan-Afghanistan border in North Waziristan, neutralizing eight terrorists and injuring four, according to the military's media affairs wing.

The attack contributes to a rising trend of terrorist activities in the region, which has seen an increase following the proscribed Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan's cessation of ceasefire with the government in late 2022.
