Pakistan Navy War College is a new college being established by Pakistan Navy at Jati Umrah near Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan.
The College is a unit of Bahria University, Pakistan
On March 4, 2008 eight persons were killed and 24 others injured when two suicide bombers blew themselves up in the parking area of the Pakistan Navy War College. It was the first time a Pakistani naval institution was targeted by the militants (Army has been targeted at least eight times outside the war zone and Air Force twice) since the ongoing War on Terrorism in Pakistan in general and post-Lal Masjid siege in particular. This attack on War College was carried out by two suicide attackers, the first one to clear the way for the second one; and the second one to do the damage.[1]
