More than 130 people have been reported killed as of Dec. 1, 2024 amid continuing sectarian clashes between Shiite and Sunni Muslims in Pakistan’s northwestern Kurram district.
The violence continued despite a ceasefire deal brokered by a Pakistani government team the week before.
Kurram has been a flashpoint for sectarian tensions for decades.
