Indian-sponsored suicide attack martyrs 13 soldiers in North Waziristan: ISPR
In a devastating attack described by the military as 'Indian-sponsored terrorism,' a suicide bomber targeted a Pakistani security forces convoy in the Mir Ali area of North Waziristan, martyring 13 soldiers and injuring three civilians, including two children and a woman. The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) issued a strongly worded statement directly blaming India for orchestrating the attack through its alleged proxy, Fitna al Khwarij, labeling it a 'cowardly act' of violence. According to the ISPR, security forces initially intercepted a vehicle-borne suicide bomber attempting to attack the convoy, foiling his plans. However, the assailants then rammed an explosive-laden vehicle into one of the lead military vehicles, causing multiple casualties. The military confirmed that 14 terrorists were later killed in retaliatory operations, with ongoing efforts to eliminate remaining threats in the area. The fallen soldiers included Subedar Zahid Iqbal (age: 45 years, resident of District Karak), Havildar Sohrab Khan (age: 39 years, resident of District Naseerabad), Havildar Mian Yousaf (age: 41 years, resident of District Buner), Naik Khitab Shah (age: 34 years, resident of District Lower Dir), Lance Naik Ismail (age: 32 years, resident of District Naseerabad), Sepoy Rohail (age: 30 years, resident of District Mirpur Khas), Sepoy Muhammad Ramzan (age: 33 years, resident of Dera Ghazi Khan), Sepoy Nawab (age: 30 years, resident of District Quetta), Sepoy Zubair Ahmed (age: 24 years, resident of District Naseerabad), Sepoy Muhammad Sahki (age: 31 years, resident of District Dera Ghazi Khan), Sepoy Hashim Abbasi (age: 20 years, resident of District Abbotabad), Sepoy Muddasir Ejaz (age: 25 years, resident of District Layyah), Sepoy Manzar Ali (age: 23 years, resident of District Mardan). The ISPR emphasized the military's unwavering resolve to eradicate terrorism, stating that such attacks only strengthen Pakistan's commitment to national security.

ChatGPT said: UK distances new MI6 chief from Nazi spy grandfather
Metreweli, 47, will be the 18th head of MI6. PHOTO: YAHOO NEWS MALAYSIA Listen to article The British government has distanced the incoming head of its foreign intelligence service from her grandfather following reports he was a Nazi spy known as "the butcher". Blaise Metreweli will in the autumn become the first woman to lead MI6 in its 116-year-old history, the British government announced earlier this month. The Daily Mail newspaper reported this week that her grandfather Constantine Dobrowolski defected from the Soviet Union's Red Army to become a Nazi informant in the Chernigiv region of modern-day Ukraine. The newspaper said German archives showed Dobrowolski was known as "the Butcher" or "Agent No 30" by Wehrmacht commanders. "Blaise Metreweli neither knew nor met her paternal grandfather," a Foreign Office spokesperson said in a statement. "Blaise's ancestry is characterised by conflict and division and, as is the case for many with eastern European heritage, only partially understood. "It is precisely this complex heritage which has contributed to her commitment to prevent conflict and protect the British public from modern threats from today's hostile states, as the next chief of MI6." The Daily Mail said Dobrowolski had a 50,000 ruble bounty placed on him by Soviet leaders, and was dubbed the "worst enemy of the Ukrainian people". He also sent letters to superiors saying he "personally" took part "in the extermination of the Jews", the newspaper added. The head of MI6 is the only publicly named member of the organisation and reports directly to the foreign minister. Metreweli, 47, will be the 18th head of MI6. Like her predecessors she will be referred to as "C", not "M" as the chief is called in the James Bond film franchise.
