Terror attack thwarted at Karachi Naval Dockyard

Pakistani Taliban claims responsibility for attack on Dockyard.
 
.
Some interesting revelations by Omar Qureshi of Express Tribune on twitter about this attack.
 
.
It was unnoticed by media since the Defence Authorities 'blacked it out' or as @metalfalcon says; "they hid it." That is the only explanation.

This was done very smartly. Historically, what happens there is that every single terrorist attack is put on the live media and to some degree glorified as the last thing you want is, these terrorists getting free marketing. And seeing the outcome on TV, their fellow terrorists and support structure either hides or runs away.

This time, the military blacked out all media and mentioning of it, they finished the deal, took the captured ones, interrogated them immediately and captured a bunch others involved and supportive of this. No media coverage means half the failure for these terrorists right away as they do these nasty, barbaric attacks to gain marketing and spread fear through the media. Well done PN!

Oh yeah, Aurangzeb Miyan. Just like PAF sat on the PAF Kamra incident.
PN would have done a darn sight better if they could have prevented the attack instead!!!!
Of course Miyan; if you can (conveniently) overlook the fact that this time; the guys even got on board a ship......makes quite a progression from the past attacks. And the "Cancer" of 'insider involvement' is getting more and more exposed. Earlier it was "Zia's children" at work, now "Zia's Grand-chldren" are displaying their prowess
So what will the next attack be like? Till then, of course: Well done PN ??

I don't think you read my entire post and I don't know what you are on about.....the attack didn't happen due to PN's own wishes, no one wants to be attacked. But are you upset because I told you that PN dealt with this very professionally and then kept silent until the entire gang was captured as they didn't see it on live media and ran away when they say it going south??

The even itself is sad and shows you how serious the threat of terrorism is. Your military is battling with the terrorists right now so there would be retaliation as these Talibastards are everywhere in your country. Hopefully, when the military finished up in the FATA areas, the next focus will be to clean up these big cities from this Taliban Cancer that's causing all this.

What was the real issue behind your post? I didn't get it and I am sure others probably didn't get it either.

Attack is prevented. Thwarted. We don't have bollywood heroes like you but still the response was very effective and appropriate. So much so that not only 4 attackers were arrested alive but some others were arrested within hours from different parts of Karachi due to information gathered by those terrorists.No asset of PN was damaged.

What more effectiveness you want from PN? Become Sunny Deol of anti-Pak movies. Sorry sir we don't have such heroes.

I know very well what you do really have................. that has got displayed again and again in the various attacks, on GHQ, ISI, PNS Mehran, PAF Kamra and now here as well...............
Probably you do not know what you really have!

You keep writing these posts that have no real content. Will you tell us what you are trying to say......like what really happened here, who attacked, who were these people and all???

talibs target the naval installations mainly?

Because some of them might well be foreign funded to harm Pakistan strategic defence assets. I don't normally believe in conspiracy theories but Pakistan is a play ground for different intelligence agencies thanks to continuous weak governments.

This right here is ALL you guys. Had you listened to the US's advise back in 2002 and did the operation that's under going today, SO MANY people would still be alive and so many terrorist attacks would've never happened. But this isn't foreign intelligences outside of RAW that's supporting these Tlibastards. The fault comes on you again to not clean up the area on your side and safeguard it for your interests when you knew that the RAW was building many cultural centers right on the border in Afghanistan.

Yes the Good Taliban and the Bad Taliban nonsense is definitely biting our *** really hard. The policy makers of this nation lives in medieval century where they wish to conquer their neighbours and raise their flags on red fort.

If you are implying India, dont you think we would want the terrorists to try and attack your nuclear assets? What is more strategic for Pakistan than those?

So come out of the mist of illogical nationalistic jingoism and open your self to alternate theories as well. What do terrorists want ? Max publicity.. What kind of attacks give them those? Attacks on Pakistani military assets. Because attacks on civilians have become so routine that most News papers have even stopped reporting them.

Sometimes things are as simple as they seem

One of the attacker was former officer of Pak navy and son of Sindh police AIG Ali Sher Jhakrani Avais Jakhrani.

yesterday express news said he was kidnapped and killed when ransom demand was not fulfilled :/
