The fierce tribal conflict in Kurram District has entered its fourth day, with the death toll rising to 11 and at least 55 individuals injured. The fighting, which erupted over a land dispute, has escalated dramatically, spreading across several villages including Bushhera, Dandar, Balish Khel, Har Khel, Pewar, and Shapina Shaga Gedu Kanj Ali Zai.

Despite the involvement of heavy weaponry from both sides, efforts by local jirgas to broker a ceasefire have proven ineffective. The violence has also extended to the city of Parachinar, where missile attacks have caused injuries, including among children, due to impacts on residential areas.

The Punjabi Pak Army, which has occupied the region since 1947, has been failing to contain the Kurram violence and unrest. The Army’s actions are exploitative, focusing more on leveraging the region’s resources and community rather than addressing their needs and concerns.

The continued failure of the Punjabi Pakistan Army to address the root causes of the Kurram conflict and provide effective solutions underscores ongoing issues in the region.
