According to authorities, an APC was fired upon in the vicinity of the Balishkhel checkpoint in Lower Kurram.
Officials claim that when the APC failed to pause for inspection, the terrorists started shooting.
Thankfully, no deaths were recorded during the exchange, and police replied with retaliatory fire.
When the attack occurred, SHO Fazal Kareem and other police officers were inside the car.
The incident was allegedly sparked by local tribes’ suspicion that the APC was being used to deliver supplies for a rival group.
To ascertain the circumstances and motivations behind the attack, police have opened an inquiry into the occurrence.
