Pakistan grapples with severe Taliban violence and humanitarian crisis

Credited from: LEMONDE

  • The **main road** linking the Kurram region to Pakistan has been **blocked for over 70 days** to combat escalating violence, impacting residents' access to essentials.
  • The blockade has resulted in a **serious humanitarian crisis**, with about **30 children dying** from lack of medical care in two months.
  • On November 21, a convoy attempting to travel from **Parachinar to Peshawar** was ambushed by **Sunni militants**, resulting in **130 fatalities** over three days.
  • The violence stems from a **long-standing land dispute** and the region's proximity to the **Durand Line**, a crucial area for terrorist activities, particularly after the **Taliban's return to power** in Afghanistan.
  • This situation highlights the precarious coexistence of **Shiite and Sunni communities** in Kurram, the only majority Shiite district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
