Authorities had hoped for a ceasefire, yet the death toll in Kurram district’s clashes has climbed to 88, with 111 wounded. Despite appeals for peace, fighting continues unabated in Bagan and Alizai.

Recently, the conflict claimed two more lives and injured 19. On November 21, Mushtaq Hussain, previously hurt in an attack on passenger vehicles in Lower Kurram’s Mandori, succumbed to his injuries, increasing that incident’s fatalities to 50.

Over the past four days, the district has seen 88 deaths and 111 injuries from various shootings.

The main Peshawar Highway is closed, and communication services are cut off.

Due to ongoing clashes and fuel shortages, all educational facilities in Kurram District remain shut, and the Kohat Educational Board has postponed certain exams.

Community leaders have called for the reopening and securing the main highway to ensure safe travel.

After a brutal attack in Parachinar, where a convoy was ambushed and 50 people killed, tensions escalated further, leading to 18 deaths over one weekend.

Including the convoy attack, the total death toll as of Monday is 88.

On Sunday, local police reported that tribal warfare with heavy weaponry in Lower Kurram exacerbated the security crisis.

Following another recent attack where gunmen targeted passenger vehicles in Kurram, killing 50—including six women and five children—the region remains tense as authorities work to stabilize the situation.

Clashing tribes in the restive #Kurram district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa reached an agreement for a week-long ceasefire, along with the exchange of hostages and the recovery of bodies.

In Kohat, protestors attacked vehicles and an ambulance, set a truck ablaze, and left the driver critically injured.

Traffic snarls between Kohat and Hangu prompted police intervention.

Protesters mourned the victims and implored the government to restore order, criticizing its failure to ensure peace.
