On 11 November 2025, a suicide bomber set off an explosion outside of the District Judicial Complex in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, killing 12 people and injuring 36, after attempting to enter the structure. Jamaat-ul-Ahrar, a faction of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), claimed responsibility for the attack. It was the deadliest attack in Islamabad in nearly a decade until the recent 2026 Islamabad mosque bombing.
