A vehicle packed with explosives rams into a mosque near a police facility in Kohat in northwestern Pakistan, killing at least 15 worshippers and injuring dozens of others. Rescue officials report that some victims are in critical condition, with casualties concentrated among people inside or near the mosque.
The attack takes place in Kohat, a district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province near the Afghan border. Multiple outlets cite the same account from a senior rescue official, Bilal Faizi, who says the incident occurred in Kohat and that the bombing leaves numerous wounded. The reports describe the event consistently but differ mainly in how they frame the location details and wording around the method of attack.
While all sources agree on the basic facts—an explosives-laden vehicle, a mosque target, and the death toll and injuries—coverage focuses on either the broader impact on worshippers or the geographical context of Kohat and its proximity to police facilities.
