Militant ploy to attack Benazir Airport, Chaklala Base foiled

But if they were a suicide squad then why did they take off? They should have gone in and completed the job by blowing themselves up inside. So, they weren't a suicide squad after all! Perhaps this op was just for spreading fear?

yeah this was a little message saying you are not out of reach
 
Are there no roadblocks near the airport.. Even if they sped away from the airport, they should have been stopped at multiple checkpoints that encircle the airports in this part of the world

There aren't any checkposts if you know your way around the place. Especially if you escape to the Islamabad side, because the other side is full of Army presence (the serious kind).
 
This was not a suicide squad .... they planned to go in cause carnage and escape , just like Mehran base attack ... If it was a suicide squad they would have caused considerable damage to the civilian airport. Its pretty obvious the target was the PAF airbase ..and they wanted to come out alive
 
This won't stop until Pak-Afghan border remains open.

Seal the border as it will benefit for long.

You cant get out once u are in. The area will be cordoned off and SSG might be called in. The only way out is to take hostages or sieze an high value equipment and negotiate for release.

how did they run away in Mehran base then ? am unaware of the geography of the place and am to lazy to look it up...
 
Mayhem averted, 18 terrorists in a confined space could have caused a lot of harm, probably would have taken a lot of hostages both foreign and local and would have caused an iinternational incident. The cops were successful in averting a major incident and both live to fight another day.

Correct, they wouldn't dare, coming to garrison side, because of heavy army deployment. My personal guess they took the road to islamabad expressway and a signal down the road, take right and you all in the outskirts of the city.....police would still be looking for them on expressway

Taking histage is not How ttp rolls, they distract with blasts and bobbytraps, mines, try to run or die ttaking down a military plane or something
 
This is seriously something to worry about,I can't believe this that they can slap on our security like this,they entered...they left untouched :angry:

If that was the intention then they would have done that outside the airport and would have tried to force their way in....isnt it?

The cops would have realised it later...the militants were dressed as cops - one wouldnt expect cops to sshoot at cops in a public place and without knowing whether they were cops or not to begin with. A major incident was averted but the failure happened in follow up action when they dissolved into the city. They seem to have considerable local support where they dissappeared with their vehicles and that should be a cause of worry for you.
