As of Monday morning, no public statement from Pakistan's military regarding the attacks was available.

Pakistan claims that Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) is involved in recent attacks in the country's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, and that they are taking shelter in Afghanistan and carrying out attacks in Pakistan. However, the Taliban government has been denying this allegation.
