Suicide attack near Islamabad court kills 12, wounds 20 as investigators search for answers
A suicide bombing outside a court in Islamabad leaves 12 dead and 20 injured, with authorities vowing justice as talks with the Afghan Taliban stall.
On Tuesday, November 11, 2025, a suicide attack outside the court complex in Islamabad's G-11 area killed 12 people and wounded 20 others. Rescue teams recovered 12 bodies and shifted the injured to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, where they were treated in the emergency department. The bomber's head was found lying on the road, and security forces cordoned off the area as investigators began collecting evidence near the entrance of the court complex.\n\nThe blast occurred in a busy part of the capital, a short distance from government offices and other judicial facilities, underscoring the audacity of the attack and the challenges in safeguarding public spaces.\n\nNo group immediately claimed responsibility for the blast. The attack came days after the third round of talks between Pakistan and the Afghan Taliban failed to reach any agreement to tackle terrorism emanating from Afghanistan.\n\nInterior Minister Mohsin Naqvi visited the site and vowed to bring the perpetrators to justice. He said investigators would pursue every lead and that security around courts and other vulnerable sites would be intensified to prevent further incidents.
