To end the Kurram crisis, the KP government appeals to the army

KURRAM: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa administration asked the federal government to send more military and paramilitary soldiers under Article 245 to stop the brutal conflict as the death toll from a dispute in the Kurram tribal district reached 11 with two more deaths on Tuesday.

More than 70 people have been hurt as a result of the conflict between residents of Dandar Sehra and Boshehra, which began on July 7. Both sides used heavy and automatic weapons to cause the greatest number of casualties.

Due to road blockades and the fighting, there is a lack of necessities, especially food, in the area.

Conflicts persisted on Tuesday in the communities of Pewar, Gido, Balishkhel, Khar Killay, Sadda, Para Chamkani, Muqbal, and Kunj Alizai.

According to Dr. Qaiser Abbas of the Parachinar District Headquarters Hospital, there were 25 injuries and two fatalities from the fighting on Tuesday. He claimed that the injured had been relocated to the THQ Sadda and DHQ Parachinar. Three of the seriously hurt people were transported to Peshawar.PM was urged to step in.Separately, Faisal Karim Kundi, the head of the PPP, urged Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to step in and put an end to the war raging in the tribal district before it spreads and destabilises law and order more broadly.

The former deputy speaker of the National Assembly said in a statement on Tuesday that the PM should immediately summon a jirga to address this matter before Muharram and that it was inaccurate to describe a land dispute between two tribes as a sectarian issue.
