Shocking Video: Taliban Bomber Strikes Pakistani Checkpoint

A shocking video is circulating online showing a Taliban suicide bomber attacking a Pakistani security checkpoint in the Bakar area of Punjab on Tuesday, February 24th, killing four Pakistani police officers. The video shows the suicide bomber approaching the checkpoint and then detonating explosives. The escalation of conflict between Pakistan and the Taliban was expected by some analysts as tensions on the border have increased in recent months, with bombings – although limited – continuing and any diplomatic efforts to resolve the conflict failing. Since last weekend (February 21-22, 2026), clashes, gunfire and casualties have increased dramatically, leading Pakistan to officially declare war on the de facto governing authorities of the Taliban in Afghanistan on Thursday (February 26, 2026).
