Bodies of two Frontier Constabulary personnel, Havaldar Ishaq and Sepoy Umar Hayat, were recently recovered from the Kamali graveyard in Palosi, according to Rescue 1122 and local sources on Monday. The men, who belonged to Platoon No 59, were reportedly abducted by unidentified armed men from Saifan Kozi Khel in the Karam Garhi area within the Cantt police station's jurisdiction on Sunday evening.
Following the incident, security measures were intensified in the region, and a search operation for the assailants commenced. Investigations into the matter were ongoing, sources revealed. The tragedy follows the death of an Elite Force constable within Bannu Cantonment Police Station's jurisdiction a week earlier. August saw a 50% rise in terrorist attacks in KP compared to July, with a total of 54 attacks recorded in August, up from 36 in July.
However, the number of deaths and injuries caused by these attacks decreased, falling from 69 and 96 to 44 and 70, respectively, marking a 27% drop in injuries.
