Two policemen killed in attack on polio team in Pakistan

Original: Two policemen killed, one injured in attack on polio team in Pakistan: jihadis stupidly attack vaccination clinics all t

Militants attacked a polio vaccination team in the Mohmand district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, killing two police officers escorting the team and injuring a third. Vaccination campaigns in Pakistan are frequently targeted by armed groups who oppose immunisation, and police escorts regularly bear the brunt of such attacks. The incident highlights continued risks to health workers and security personnel during nationwide anti-polio drives.

Why now: An attack on a polio vaccination team killing police officers highlights ongoing militant opposition to immunisation campaigns in Pakistan.
