Sweet diplomacy turns sour at the international borders with Pakistan in Punjab

IndiaTimes Monday, 13 November 2023
The exchange of sweets between the border guarding forces of India and Pakistan on religious and national significance days has diminished. While the Border Security Force (BSF) and Pakistan Rangers exchanged sweets and greetings on Eid, the Pakistani Rangers did not show up for Diwali. A senior BSF official expressed disappointment and said that the Pakistani Rangers are deviating from established customs. The lack of exchange is concerning for maintaining positive relations at the border.

Bannu Cantt in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa attacked with explosives, 12 Pak Soldiers Killed

The Bannu military cantonment in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, located over 330 km east of Islamabad, came under a severe attack early on Monday (July 15). The assault, reportedly led by several suicide bombers, resulted in a prolonged gunbattle with security forces. The militant group Jaish Fursan-e-Muhammad, a faction of the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) led by Hafiz Gul Bahadur, claimed responsibility for the attack. According to Pakistani state media, the incident began when the assailants attempted to breach the cantonment’s security perimeter with an explosive-laden vehicle. #BannuCantonment #PakistanAttack #KhyberPakhtunkhwa #Terrorism #PakistaniSoldiers #ExplosiveAttack #SecurityThreat #TTP #JaishFursan-e-Muhammad #MilitaryCasualties #TerroristIncident #SecurityForces #PakistaniArmy #NationalSecurity #CurrentEvents ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.334~
