Iran Press/Asia: After the recent terrorist attack on the Shiites of Parachinar, Pakistan in Kurram district, which left more than 124 people dead, the 72-day closure of roads leading to the area has led to a shortage of food, medicine, and the death of 29 children.
Despite the efforts of the local government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, which led to a ceasefire in the tribal areas about two weeks ago, the roads leading to Parachinar City remain closed, and efforts to reopen the Peshawar axis, the capital of the province, have failed. Meanwhile, the cabinet of the local government of Punjab province has approved the sending of relief supplies, including medicine and food, to Parachinar.
Dozens of people were killed in a terrorist attack by Takfiris on several passenger vehicles on the Parachinar-Peshawar road in northwestern Pakistan on Thursday (November 21).
Parachinar city is the center of the Kurram tribal region, which is predominantly Shiite.
