It was a post where police conducted security checks along the road. At the time of the incident, an unidentified attacker drove a tractor loaded with explosives towards the post.

Pakistan's Home Minister Mohsin Nakhvi strongly condemned the attack. In a post on social media, he stated that Khyber-Peshtun Province is at the 'frontline' of the counter-terrorism campaign, and that the actions of terrorist organizations cannot shake the determination of the Pakistani government to combat terrorism.
According to the Dawn newspaper, the number of terrorist activities in Khyber-Peshtun Province has increased over the past few months, and local law enforcement agencies and security forces have also become targets of attacks. At the beginning of this month, the police thwarted an attack by the extremist group ‘Pakistani Taliban’ against a post in Dera Ismail Khan, with no reports of casualties among the police personnel.
On September 18th local time, a police station in Khyber-Peshtun Province was attacked, resulting in the death of 23 people and approximately 100 people injured. During the military operation that night, Pakistan's security forces killed eight terrorists.
According to data from the Pakistan Institute of Conflict and Security Studies, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province recorded 54 terrorist attacks in August, a 50% increase compared to the previous month. This has led the Pakistani government to strengthen its counter-terrorism efforts.
