Oman Mosque Shooting: Multiple Attackers Flock Inside Mosque with Guns, Indian Among 6 Killed
A tragic shooting incident near a mosque in Muscat, the capital of Oman, has resulted in the deaths of at least four Pakistani nationals and left multiple others injured.
The Royal Oman Police reported that the shooting occurred in the al-Wadi al-Kabir neighbourhood, near the Imam Ali Mosque, during the observance of Ashura, a significant event for Shia Muslims commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (AS), the grandson of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).
Iraqi fighters, backed by Iran, have crossed into Syria to join forces with Syrian and Russian military units in a fight against Turkey-backed jihadist rebels. The deployment comes after the jihadists seized Aleppo, marking a significant blow to the Syrian government's control. These reinforcements, primarily from Iraq's Badr and Nujabaa groups, are expected to focus on defending key Shiite shrines and supporting Assad’s forces on the frontlines.
However, Lebanon's Hezbollah, a key ally of Syria and Iran, has decided to stay out of this latest conflict. Despite Hezbollah's earlier role in supporting Syrian forces, particularly in the fight against rebels, it is not ready to commit forces in the current escalation, reportedly due to the strain from its ongoing war with Israel.

In a surge of sectarian violence in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, at least 37 people have been killed and dozens more wounded in less than 24 hours. The clashes, primarily between Sunni and Shia communities, have intensified in recent months, particularly in the mountainous Kurram district, a region known for its long-standing sectarian tensions. The violence escalated after gunmen targeted Shia convoys, killing 43 on Thursday, prompting retaliatory attacks by Shia groups, who set fire to Sunni-dominated areas. Despite efforts to mediate peace, the region remains unstable, with security forces attempting to restore calm amid growing tensions.
