Claimed responsibility for Islamabad mosque bombing via Amaq News Agency; Pakistani authorities arrested alleged mastermind (Afghan national) and facilitators in KP raids
Pakistan has not seen a suicide bombing in its capital since 2016. That changed in November 2025, when an attacker killed 12 outside an Islamabad court. Two days ago, on February 6, 2026, a suicide bomber walked into a Shia mosque during Friday prayers and killed 31 worshippers, wounding 169 more. The attack on Khadija Tul Kubra mosque was the deadliest in Islamabad since the 2008 Marriott Hotel bombing that killed 63.
