A ceasefire agreement has been reached between two warring tribes in Pakistan’s restive Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province following days of clashes between them that killed 130 people in the volatile Kurram district.
Deputy Commissioner Kurram Javedullah Mehsud confirmed on Sunday that peace has been established across the conflict zones in the restive Kurram district.
The clashes between Alizai and Bagan tribes in the district started on November 22, after an attack on a convoy of passenger vans near Parachinar in which 47 people were killed a day earlier. Several passengers who had sustained grave injuries succumbed later, raising the toll in the convoy killing to 57
