India’s Ministry of External Affairs has categorically rejected the Pakistan Army’s claim that India orchestrated the June 28 suicide car‑bombing in North Waziristan, which killed 13 Pakistani soldiers and injured others including civilians. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal denounced the allegation as “deserving of contempt” on X, stressing it was baseless. The attack involved a bomber driving an explosive‑laden vehicle into a military convoy in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Pakistan’s Inter‑Services Public Relations identified Fitna‑al‑Khawarij as the perpetrators, while no one has claimed responsibility. The explosion also wounded 10 military personnel and 19 civilians. India’s firm denial underscores the deep mistrust and recurring accusations in India‑Pakistan relations. (PC: File Photo)
