At least 14 people, including 11 security personnel and three civilians, were killed on Monday in two bomb attacks and a gunfight between police and militants in Pakistan’s northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Among the dead was a child. The incidents also left at least 25 others injured. The attacks occurred as Pakistani security forces were engaged in counter-insurgency operations along the Afghan border in the country’s southern and northern provinces.

According to a security official, one of the attacks took place in Bajaur district when a vehicle loaded with explosives was driven into the wall of a religious college, killing eight police and Frontier Corps members and injuring ten others. A child died when nearby houses collapsed. In a separate incident in Bannu city, a bomb planted in a rickshaw exploded near the Miryan police station, killing two civilians and injuring 17 others. Officials warned that the death toll could rise.

The violence followed an earlier ISIS-claimed suicide bombing this month at a Shia mosque in Islamabad that killed at least 31 people and injured 169.
