VOICED : Ataques con bomba sacuden Pakistan

On a deadly Friday, Pakistan experienced two separate bomb attacks targeting security forces, resulting in at least 19 deaths. The first was a suicide attack in Peshawar, a city near tribal areas known as militant havens. Later, a remote-controlled bomb exploded in Queta, targeting a paramilitary convoy. These incidents disrupt ongoing peace talks aimed at ending a seven-year Islamist insurgency, which had recently resumed with hopes of progressing to a new phase. However, the ceasefire declared by Pakistani Taliban on March 1 has been undermined by such violent episodes.
