Afghanistan
Pakistan may carry out strike inside Afghanistan after terror attacks, warns Asif
Wotta coincidence. They just had one in New Delhi yesterday.It's almost like some third party was egging them on to have a war. Or is that just me?
"Let's you and him fight"
[GEO.TV] Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on Tuesday warned that Pakistain could carry out strikes inside Afghanistan following recent terrorist attacks in Islamabad and South Wazoo, slamming the Afghan Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
regime for harbouring Lions of Islam behind the violence.

Over the past two days, Pakistain has witnessed two major terror incidents — one targeting Cadet College Wana in South Waziristan and another striking Islamabad.

Speaking on Geo News' programme 'Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath', the defence minister said cross-border action inside Afghanistan could not be "ruled out" following the two attacks.

Asif rejected the Afghan Taliban regime's condemnation of the attacks, saying that such expressions of regret could not "be taken as proof of sincerity". "Those sheltered by the Afghan Taliban are repeatedly attacking us," he said.

The defence minister warned India and Afghanistan against any misadventure, saying Pakistain would "pay back in the same coin".

"Pakistain will never initiate any military adventure," he assured. However,
a good lie finds more believers than a bad truth...
he said: "We will not let any act of aggression go unanswered; we will respond forcefully."

It is to be noted here that at least 12 were martyred and over 30 injured in the suicide kaboom in Islamabad.

Prior to this, Asif warned that Pakistain was fully capable of delivering a befitting response to cross-border terrorism.

"We are in a state of war. Anyone who thinks that the Pakistain Army is fighting this war only in the border areas along Afghanistan or in the remote regions of Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
should take the suicide kaboom in Islamabad as a wake-up call," the defence czar wrote in a post on X.

Libya Reports New Airstrikes on Zuwara Port
[LibyaReview] Libya witnessed renewed tension after the Esnad Coast Guard and Security Unit reported fresh airstrikes on Zuwara’s fishing port and the Abu Kammash area. The strikes occurred on Monday evening, according to a statement issued on Tuesday by the unit affiliated with the Ministry of Defence in the Government of National Unity. The unit did not specify the actor behind the attack, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the escalating situation in the western region.

This latest incident follows Sunday’s announcement by the environmental group BESIDA, which said its headquarters in Zuwara had been struck by what it described as a drone aircraft. The organisation, which is dedicated to protecting Farwa Island and its lagoon, denied any involvement in smuggling, human trafficking or unlawful activities. BESIDA said the attack represented a dangerous development and warned that targeting an environmental NGO undermines civilian community work.

The continued aerial bombardment has drawn strong condemnation from armed groups based in western Libya. The Shahid Jabal Nafusa Battalion denounced what it described as ongoing airstrikes since Thursday, claiming that several locations in Zuwara have been targeted under the pretext of combating smuggling. The latest strike on the BESIDA headquarters intensified concerns about the pattern of attacks.

India-Pakistan
Day 2, Part II: Dr Umar Driver of Car in Red Fort Explosion After Large Caches of Explosives, Weapons Found Days Ago in Faridabad, Multiple Arrests of Jaish-e-Mohammad cell
See Day 2, Part I here, and Day 1 here
All articles here from One India.
Dr Umar Identified as Driver of Car in Red Fort Explosion, Security Sources Confirm
Security sources confirm Dr Umar was driving the car that exploded near the Red Fort, killing 12 and injuring 20. He is linked to a terror module.

A car explosion near the Red Fort on Monday evening resulted in at least 12 fatalities and 20 injuries, according to senior security sources. Dr Umar, affiliated with a terror module and employed at Al-Falah Medical College in Faridabad, was reportedly driving the vehicle. CCTV footage strongly suggests Dr Umar's involvement in the incident.

The explosion involved materials identical to those seized in Faridabad. Approximately 3,000 kg of explosives were confiscated on November 9 and 10. This seizure was crucial in preventing further damage and was part of a broader investigation into the terror module.

Dr Umar's sudden disappearance raised questions about whether the explosion was accidental or premeditated. Security sources are still investigating the circumstances surrounding the blast to determine its nature.

SECURITY AGENCIES' SUCCESS
India's security forces successfully disrupted a major conspiracy by dismantling the Faridabad module. The seizure of explosive materials played a significant role in averting potential threats. The operation highlighted the effectiveness of India's intelligence network in countering terrorism.

Who Was Dr. Umar Nabi, the Terrorist and Suicide Bomber Behind the Red Fort Blast in Delhi?
As investigators dig deeper into the deadly explosion near Delhi's Red Fort, officials now believe that Dr Umar U Nabi, a medical professional turned extremist, was the suicide bomber who triggered the blast that killed at least 12 people on Monday evening.

A DOCTOR'S DESCENT INTO RADICALIZATION
The first image of Dr Umar surfaced early Tuesday, showing the man suspected to have driven the white Hyundai i20 that exploded near the Red Fort. According to investigators, Dr Umar U Nabi, son of Gh Nabi Bhat, hailed from Pulwama in Jammu and Kashmir and worked as a doctor at Al-Falah Medical College in Faridabad. His mother, Shamima Banoo, belongs to Koil village in Pulwama.

Born on February 24, 1989, Dr Umar had once been regarded as a promising student. He completed his MD in Medicine from Government Medical College, Srinagar, before joining GMC Anantnag as a senior resident. Later, he shifted to Delhi, where he served as an Assistant Professor at Al-Falah Medical College until his alleged involvement in the blast.

Sources said his father, a government school teacher who has been mentally unwell, left his job over a decade ago. The family includes two brothers and a sister, both of whom-along with his mother-have been detained for questioning.

THE "FARIDABAD MODULE" AND THE TELEGRAM TRAIL
Investigators suspect Dr Umar was part of a network of medical professionals radicalised online through encrypted Telegram channels. The group, reportedly led by Dr Adeel Ahmad Rather, is being referred to by officials as the "Faridabad module."

According to a senior officer, "These individuals appeared well-educated and unsuspecting, but they were deeply indoctrinated through digital platforms. Their professional status helped them operate quietly under the radar."

THE NIGHT OF THE EXPLOSION
At 6:52 pm on Monday, a white Hyundai i20 stopped at a traffic signal on Subhas Marg, a busy stretch near the Red Fort. Within seconds, the car exploded, causing widespread devastation. Several nearby vehicles caught fire, and people were seen thrown by the impact. Videos from the site showed the aftermath, with mangled bodies and shattered glass scattered across the street.

The explosion occurred just hours after Haryana and Jammu & Kashmir Police had arrested two of Umar's close aides, Dr Adeel Ahmad Rather and Dr Mujammil Shakil, in connection with a terror module. The operation also led to the seizure of 2,900 kg of explosives and a cache of weapons, including assault rifles and pistols. Officials believe the arrests may have triggered Dr Umar to carry out the suicide attack.

On Tuesday, police took Umar's mother, Shamima Banoo, for DNA testing in Pulwama to confirm the identity of the bomber. "We have taken the mother of the suspect to collect DNA samples in order to match with the parts found at the scene of the blast," an official told PTI.

Authorities are now working to trace the broader network linked to Dr Umar, with a focus on identifying others radicalised through the same online channels that transformed a once-promising doctor into a suicide bomber.

Tracking the Red Fort Blast: A Timeline of Terror from Kashmir to Delhi
The deadly car blast near Delhi's Red Fort on November 10 has shaken the nation, not just for its scale but for the chilling trail of events that preceded it. What began as a routine probe into pro-terror posters in Srinagar quickly unravelled into a complex terror module allegedly linked to Jaish-e-Mohammad
...literally Army of Mohammad, a Pak-based Deobandi terror group founded by Maulana Masood Azhar in 2000, after he split with the Harkat-ul-Mujaheddin. In 2002 the government of Pervez Musharraf banned the group, which changed its name to Khaddam ul-Islam and continued doing what it had been doing before without missing a beat...
Investigators traced connections across states-from Kashmir to Haryana and Uttar Pradesh-uncovering massive caches of explosives and weapons, and arresting multiple suspects. The operation revealed a disturbing level of planning and coordination, culminating in a catastrophic explosion that claimed at least 12 lives.

As Delhi Police pieced together the timeline, surveillance footage and toll data revealed the Hyundai i20's 11-hour journey from Faridabad to the heart of the capital. The vehicle lingered near the Red Fort for hours before detonating in a crowded area, sending shockwaves through the city.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, speaking from Bhutan, condemned the attack and vowed that those responsible would be brought to justice. The blast has not only triggered a high-level investigation but also reignited concerns about cross-border terror networks and urban security vulnerabilities.

Day 2, Part I: At least 12 people were killed in an explosion outside a court in Islamabad
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited
Day 2, Part II can be seen here. It’s a Jaish e-Mohammad plot — arrests started days ago.
Day 1 can be seen here.

UPDATE at 11:25 a.m. ET: Whoops!!! Major apologies — this is a separate explosion in Pakistan, not yesterday’s New Delhi one in front of the Red Fort. I’m going to leave Part 1 here anyway, because there is so much of it and it’s already set up. Again, my apologies for my carelessness.

— trailing wife for herself only, the other moderators are innocent of this one. :-(
[Regnum] An explosion occurred near a courthouse in Islamabad on November 11, killing at least 12 people and injuring 21 others. The Geo TV channel reported this, citing sources.

Police told reporters that the explosion occurred in a car parked outside the building. Afterward, everyone was evacuated from the building, and the court proceedings were suspended.

Rescuers, medics, and law enforcement arrived at the scene. The injured were taken to the hospital. According to preliminary reports, the explosion was carried out by a suicide bomber.

The channel notes that Pakistani authorities are struggling with the rising number of terrorist attacks in the country. From January to August, more than 600 terrorist attacks were recorded in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province alone, resulting in the deaths of at least 138 civilians and 79 law enforcement officers.

INITIAL PROBE SUGGESTS 'ACCIDENTAL' DETONATION OF EXPLOSIVES
Findings of the initial probe into the blast near the Red Fort suggest it may have been “accidentally triggered” while a hastily assembled explosive device was being transported, following the busting of an inter-state terror module, officials said on Tuesday.

Investigators have zeroed in on a Pulwama-based doctor, Umar Nabi, who was driving the car used in the explosion that claimed 12 lives, and had alleged links to the terror module busted with the recovery of explosives mainly from neighbouring Faridabad in Haryana.

On Tuesday, the Jammu and Kashmir Police took a DNA sample from Nabi’s mother to establish the relation.

DELHI BLAST LINKED TO POSTERS FOUND IN SRINAGAR ON OCT 19: SOURCE
The Red Fort blast is ultimately linked to the finding of posters in Srinagar, which led to an FIR on October 19, according to a senior security source.

The posters were found in an area under the Naugaum police post in the Jammu and Kashmir summer capital.

Investigation into the incident led to the arrest of Maulvi Irfan Ahmed Waghe from Shopian and Zameer Ahmed from Wakura, Ganderbal, between October 20 and October 27.

DR. UMAR WAS DRIVING CAR THAT EXPLODED NEAR RED FORT: SECURITY SOURCES
Dr. Umar, who was part of an extensive terror module and was working at the Al-Falah Medical College in Haryana’s Faridabad, was driving the car that exploded near the Red Fort on Monday evening, killing at least 13 people and injuring 20 others, senior security sources said on Tuesday.

Based on CCTV camera footage, it can be almost conclusively established that the car in which the explosion took place was being driven by Dr. Umar, the sources said.

During the operations carried out by the security agencies at multiple locations in Kashmir and Faridabad since October 19, it has been found that Dr. Umar, who was part of the terror module and was working at the Al-Falah Medical College, changed his location due to continuous pressure from the agencies, they said.

DELHI BLAST COULD BE RESULT OF PANIC RATHER THAN PRE-PLANNED ACT: SECURITY SOURCES
The blast near the Red Fort that killed at least 13 people on Monday may have been caused due to panic and desperation after raids carried out by the security agencies across multiple locations in Delhi-NCR and Pulwama, Jammu and Kashmir, to nab suspects believed to be part of a terror module, preliminary assessment by security agencies said.

Senior security sources also said the bomb was premature and not fully developed, thus limiting the impact.

The explosion did not create a crater, and no shrapnel or projectiles were found on the spot, averting a major attack due to “pan-India alertness and coordinated crackdown” on suspect modules, the security assessment said.

Whether it was pre-planned or accidental will be ascertained during the course of a detailed probe, the sources said.

NOVEMBER 11, 2025 20:41
SECURITY TIGHTENED ALONG INDO-NEPAL BORDER AFTER DELHI BLAST
Uttar Pradesh Police and the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB), along with various intelligence agencies, have increased vigil on the Sonauli border of India and Nepal following the high-intensity explosion near the Red Fort metro station in New Delhi last evening, officials said.

Security agencies have been asked to ascertain the identities of people before allowing them to cross over through the border, Superintendent of Police (SP) Mahrajganj Somendra Meena said today.

To strengthen the security arrangements at the porous India-Nepal border and to stop infiltration of anti-national elements, the SSB has installed closed-circuit cameras and drone cameras on every route leading to Nepal.

These cameras have been put on the SSB posts beside the main roads. “Metal detectors have been installed at Sonauli and Tuthibari outposts on the India-Nepal border,” Ms. Meena said.

POLICE CONDUCT SEARCH OPERATION IN FARIDABAD DAY AFTER RECOVERY OF HUGE CACHE OF EXPLOSIVES
An extensive combing and search operation was conducted in parts of Faridabad today, a day after 2,900 kg of explosives and inflammable material were recovered from two rented rooms of a Kashmiri doctor in Faridabad.

Preliminary probe into the blast near Delhi’s Red Fort on Monday evening has suggested links to the alleged terror module uncovered in Faridabad.

Police today said a team is camping at the Al Falah University, where the Kashmiri doctor lived for the past three-and-a-half years, and is questioning staff and doctors there.

The Al Falah University at Dhouj in Haryana’s Faridabad district, around 45 km from Delhi, is a private institute recognised by the University Grants Commission (UGC).

Several police personnel are conducting a search in the Dhauj police station area.

Haryana police chief O.P. Singh, in a post on X on today, said, “The situation in the state is peaceful. Police and other agencies are on high alert.”

In another post, he nixed reports about fresh recovery of explosives in Faridabad, saying, “Diwali crackers have been seized in Faridabad. This is not the recovery of explosives.”

FATHER OF DELHI BLAST ACCUSED DETAINED IN J-K'S PULWAMA FOR QUESTIONING
Police in Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday detained the father of the man suspected to be driving the car that exploded near the Red Fort for questioning, officials said.

Ghulam Nabi Bhat was picked up by the police from his residence at Koil in Pulwama, hours after his wife was taken for a DNA test, the officials said.

The police have rounded up several doctors who were working with blast suspect Umar Nabi in Faridabad, the officials said.

They said three other persons, who were linked to the sale and purchase of the car involved in the blast, have been detained for questioning.

However, no formal arrests have been made so far.

All ''Khawarij'' killed in Cadet College Wana attack as forces begin landmine sweep
[GEO.TV] All Fitna-al-Hindustan terrorists involved in the attack on Cadet College Wana were eliminated after security forces killed four militants and a suicide attacker in a swift operation, security sources said on Tuesday.

''Four Khawarij and one suicide attacker were taken down in a coordinated push, and not a single student or teacher was harmed, and the building is now being swept due to the threat of landmines,'' say sources.

Security forces have successfully rescued all students and teachers from the cadet college as the clearance operation entered its conclusive phase on Tuesday, security sources said.

According to security sources, the operation will now be carried out comprehensively to its logical conclusion. The cautious approach was necessary due to the presence of Afghan Khawarij inside the college and the paramount need to ensure the safety of the cadets' lives, sources added.

Iraq
Kurdish forces spot ISIS fighters in Makhmour: Commander
[Rudaw] Kurdish Peshmerga forces recently spotted Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) fighters in Makhmour town, southwest of Erbil city, a senior Peshmerga commander said on Sunday.

Peshmerga forces based in between Makhmour and Gwer towns "spotted ISIS members using thermal binoculars at night in the Qarach plains about five days ago. They also carry out activities but they are limited and involve small numbers," Sirwan Barzani, who commands Peshmerga forces in the area, told Rudaw.

He added that the US-led global coalition against ISIS shares their belief that ISIS "terrorist jihadist ideology still persists."

"ISIS remains a threat because its ideology remains. It is true that they officially do not control any territory, but their jihadist ideology persists. They will [attack] whenever they find an opportunity," he said.

ISIS rose to power and seized swathes of Iraqi and Syrian land in 2014, declaring a so-called caliphate. The group was declared territorially defeated in Syria in 2019, two years after its defeat in Iraq. Despite its military defeat, it continues to pose security risks, particularly in the vast eastern deserts of Syria.

Sirwan Barzani added that their coordination with the coalition and Iraqi army is strong, "especially in terms of intelligence sharing and information exchange."

Qais al-Muhammadawi, deputy commander of Iraq's Joint Operations Command, told Rudaw in September that their cooperation with the coalition and Peshmerga was ongoing.

He believed that ISIS no longer poses a threat to Iraq.

"All they have is a little bit of movement and a number of sleeper cells in some areas of Kirkuk and deserts of Anbar [province], and we will destroy them," he stated at the time.

The fight against ISIS marked a key moment of cooperation between the Peshmerga and the Iraqi army, which had historically been at odds. In recent years, both sides have formed joint brigades and launched coordinated operations to close security gaps in the disputed territories.

"We have two joint brigades with the Peshmerga. Together, we exert full efforts to minimize threats and fill security voids," Muhammadawi noted.

Sirwan Barzani also highlighted their ties with the army.

"Our coordination with the Iraqi army is very strong. We always have joint operations and the joint brigades, although they are few in number, have filled some gaps," he said.

Makhmour is located southwest of Erbil and administratively part of Nineveh province.

IDF says it killed terror operative who crossed Gaza’s Yellow Line, demolished tunnel used to kidnap Hadar Goldin 11 years ago
[IsraelTimes] The IDF says it killed a terror operative who crossed the Yellow Line demarcating the area under the military’s control after its partial withdrawal and approached troops in the southern Gaza Strip today.

The military says the operative posed an immediate threat to the troops, who opened fire to remove the threat.

IDF says it demolished tunnel used to abduct Hadar Goldin 11 years ago

[IsraelTimes] Hours after the body of Lt. Hadar Goldin was returned to Israel by Hamas on Sunday, the IDF demolished the tunnel to which he was abducted 11 years ago, the army says.

At 9:05 a.m. on August 1, 2014, just over an hour after the start of a 72-hour humanitarian ceasefire during the 2014 Gaza War, Hamas gunmen emerged from a tunnel in the southeastern part of Rafah and attacked troops of the Givati Brigade’s reconnaissance unit, killing three soldiers, including Goldin, whose body was dragged by the terror operatives into their tunnel.

The military says that over 11 years later, just after his body was returned, troops of the Nahal Brigade razed the tunnel opening.

''Everything has a limit'': Hezbollah chief says near-daily IDF strikes can''t continue
[TIMESOFISRAEL] Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem<img src='Pix/naimqassem.jpg' width=200 style='float:right;;margin:4px;border:1px solid gray;' />
... the Grand Vizier of the Hezbullies...
warned Tuesday that the ongoing trend of near-daily Israeli strikes in southern Leb
...The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. Only one of those statements is an exaggeration....
''cannot continue.''

''Everything has a limit,'' Qassem said on Hezbollah's al-Manar television.

He claimed that the fragile ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon only applies to southern Lebanon, suggesting that disarming Hezbollah and other enforcement mechanisms should not apply to areas north of the Litani River.

He reiterated that Hezbollah will not disarm, defying the Lebanese government's efforts to collect the terror group's weapons, which Qassem said are needed for self-defense.

Washington is pushing to cut off Hezbollah's funding sources while also pressing the Lebanese government to disarm the Iran-backed terror group. Qassem complained that the US is trying to force the country to make concessions to Israel with no commitments offered in return.

''America— is putting pressure on the government to make concessions without any reciprocal commitments or guarantees— and wants to give Israel free rein,'' Qassem said. ''The government's role is not to listen to American diktats and begin implementing them.''
