Five killed, four injured in Kurram shelling
[Dawn] Five people were ejected from the gene pool and four others maimed as a result of shelling by gunship helicopters in the upper Kurram tribal area on Tuesday.And a wonderful time was had by all, except for the dead guys. Helicopters targeted rustics of two rival tribes who were slugging it out in the areas of Shelozan and Shelozan Tungi for last 18 days over a water dispute. Half the country's been washed away and they've got a water dispute. Go figure. The dispute has, so far, clamed 147 short and brutal lives as both tribes were using heavy weapons in the festivities. The political administration and the elders were trying to break a peace deal between the groups. Security forces were targeting hideouts and positions of the gunnies in order to stop the clashes.
