Police foiled a major terrorist attack on the Changhos Police Checkpost in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Karak district after heavily armed militants launched an assault late at night.

According to data from the international environmental monitoring website, the air quality index (AQI) of the provincial capital is 451, which ranks first. India’s capital, New Delhi, ranked second with an AQI of 224.
Several areas of Lahore reported exceptionally high pollution levels. Gulberg had an AQI of 758, followed by Allama Iqbal Town at 752 and Syed Marati B’Ali Road at 613, according to the reported data.
The air pollution situation in other major cities of Punjab also remains alarming. Multan’s AQI was 902, Gujranwala’s AQI was 726 and Faisalabad’s AQI was 389.
