Islamabad, Nov 11
At least 12 people have been killed and 21 others reportedly injured in a suicide blast outside a court building in Pakistan's Islamabad on Tuesday, local media reported citing police sources.
According to the report, the epicentre of violence was the merged districts, where people continue to face insecurity, forced displacement and limited access to justice.
The report noted that journalists covering these issues face censorship, threats and targeted attacks, which further undermine transparency and freedom of expression. Tribal elders, political advocates and advocates of peace also face attacks, sparking a deep sense of insecurity and mistrust.
