Late-Night Attack Targets Islamabad Police Station
In a separate incident, a late-night mini-rocket attack targeted the I-9 Police Station in Islamabad. Sources reported that the attack occurred at approximately 11:30 p.m.
The duty officer initially dismissed the sound of the explosion as a tire burst, delaying the response. It wasn’t until morning that the station’s damaged wall revealed impact marks, indicating the structure had been hit by a mini-rocket-like object.
A bomb disposal squad was sent to the scene to gather forensic evidence. Investigations into the attack are ongoing.
