Fact-check: The article's description of ongoing militant violence in South Waziristan aligns with the known context of South Asia Border Conflicts, and the source Stratfor is reputable for geopolitical analysis, but the specific attack on November 13, 2025, is a future event that cannot be verified with current reporting or X activity, making it speculative.
Pakistani troops are shown standing guard following an attack on Cadet College Wana, a military-linked school in the South Waziristan district near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, on November 13, 2025. The incident highlights ongoing militant violence along the volatile border region between Pakistan and Afghanistan. South Waziristan has long been a flashpoint for insurgent activity, with militant groups operating across the porous frontier.
