Another terrorist attack on Karachi airport as Pakistani Taliban declares all out war

For the second instance in two days, Pakistan's biggest and busiest airport has come under the terrorist attack yet again.



A fresh wave of bloodshed beleaguered the Airport Security Forces camp close to Karachi's Jinnah International Airport on Tuesday, the airport's manager said.

 Late Sunday night, 10 militants stormed the same airport's cargo region, leading to an hours-long attack in which 36 people lost their lives.

The Pakistani Taliban had claimed the responsibility for that attack, saying the attack was revenge for the death of former leader Hakimullah Mehsud, who was killed in a U.S. drone strike in November in North Waziristan.


One more TTP member, Shahidullah Shahid, said after the foremost assault that the faction would engage "in a full-out war with the Pakistani state, starting on June 10."
