This marks the second major attack in the region within a week, escalating the ongoing violence.

Militants attacked a regional police headquarters and a checkpost in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, killing at least five law enforcement officials.
Four militants were also killed in the attack, which was claimed by a new militant group, Ansarul Jihad.
This attack comes three days after terrorists killed 23 soldiers in the same province.
The previous attack was carried out by the Tehreek-i-Jihad Pakistan (TJP), a newly formed militant group that is an affiliate of the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has witnessed a rise in violence this year, with several deadly attacks taking place.
