Islamic State tunnels discovered beneath villages beneath Mosul

Uncovered by Iraqi Counter Terrorism Service forces in the villages of Bartella and Bazaia, roughly four miles east of Mosul, the tunnels were used as escape routes and meeting points for the jihadists.

Pakistan: Gunmen kill dozens in attack at police academy in Quetta

59 people have been killed and around 120 people critically injured after an attack took place at a police training academy in Quetta, Pakistan, late on 24 October night. Three militants with suicide bomb vests attacked the college when cadets were sleeping. No group immediately claimed responsibility, but an official from Pakistan’s paramilitary forces blamed a faction of the Lashker-e-Jhangvi militant group for the attack. Oct 25, 2016
