An image circulating on Afghan propaganda accounts is not recent but dates to a 2011 blast at an under-construction police station. The claim incorrectly links the photo to a current or recent incident. Official assessments confirm no credible connection to any recent attack, and Kohat Cantonment remains fully secure and operational. This appears to be a propaganda tactic aimed at misleading viewers. Readers are urged to verify image provenance with credible sources, cross-check with official statements from security forces or local authorities, and practice media literacy to avoid spreading outdated or misleading content. This example underscores how outdated visuals can be repurposed to influence opinions online.
