PESHAWAR: In a further setback to the education of females in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa amidst the continuous wave of terrorism, terrorists on Saturday announced that they had bombed part of a girls’ school in the Wana tehsil of South Waziristan, according to The News.
Since the middle of 2021, terror assaults have continued to wrack the northwest of the country, affecting numerous girls’ schools in regions all around KP.
Eight days after a school in the southern areas was destroyed, the Sofia Noor School, which was founded a few weeks ago for the girls of the isolated and impoverished district with assistance from Wana Welfare Association, was blown up on Friday.
On May 9, a bomb went off at the Islamia Girls School in Sheva, North Waziristan. But there were no recorded casualties from the bombing.
Residents of the province, who have been witnessing attacks on educational institutions nearly every day for years, are terrified as a result of the explosion at the school.
The News stated that work was still ongoing in a few of the school’s blocks. No casualties were reported, although reports state that the explosion at around three in the morning destroyed part of the structure. Additionally, according to certain social media accounts, the administration of the institution had received extortion letters. However, the locals have flatly refuted it.
