Newly released CCTV footage has revealed the moment a second suicide attacker struck the Federal Constabulary Headquarters in Peshawar on November 24, 2025, escalating an already deadly assault on one of Pakistan’s key security facilities. The video shows a motorcycle-borne militant approaching the compound gate before detonating explosives, sending debris and chaos across the entrance as security personnel scrambled to respond.

The attack, claimed by Jamaat-ul-Ahrar—a faction of Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan—killed three officers and injured at least twelve others. Despite fortified perimeters and heightened alert levels in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the incident underscores the persistent ability of militant groups to penetrate high-security zones and carry out coordinated strikes.

Authorities reported that the second blast followed an earlier explosion intended to draw forces into the open, a tactic frequently used by extremist organizations seeking to maximize casualties among responding personnel. The CCTV footage highlights the rapid escalation and confusion as guards attempted to secure the area amid smoke and shrapnel.

For observers concerned about global security trends, the attack once again demonstrates the ongoing threat posed by radical Islamist factions operating in the region. While Pakistan continues to struggle with internal militant networks, the incident serves as a reminder of the importance of strong counterterrorism cooperation among allies, including the United States and Israel, which have long emphasized the need for intelligence sharing and proactive security measures against extremist threats.

Investigations into possible security lapses are underway, and officials warn that further attempts by militant groups cannot be ruled out. As families mourn the fallen officers and authorities work to reinforce defenses, the attack highlights the high cost of complacency in areas vulnerable to terrorism and destabilization.
