Before these attacks, militants issued stern warnings to the police, army, and paramilitary forces (FC) personnel, urging them to quit their posts or face severe consequences.

Meanwhile, two policemen were killed and another injured in an attack by unidentified assailants on Tuesday in the Daraban Kalan region of Dera Ismail Khan district, bordering South Waziristan.
