...home of an intricately interconnected web of poverty, ignorance, and religious fanaticism, where the laws of cause and effect are assumed to be suspended, conveniently located adjacent to Tora Bora...
Sunday morning, according to local political administration.

A spokesperson of the local administration said the attack which left locals panicked did not cause any loss of life. However,

one missile struck a shop in the Shingak area, another landed near a mosque, and two others in a graveyard at Kachkina, he said.

The spokesperson claimed the missiles were fired from Afghanistan's Paktia province.

Kurram is one of the most sensitive tribal areas as it borders three Afghan provinces and at one point was one of the key routes for Death Eater movement across the border.

Bilateral relations between Pakistain and Afghanistan have been tense as of late, with officials from both sides traded allegations over terrorism.

Pakistain's border crossings with Afghanistan had been sealed in the aftermath of a suicide kaboom at the shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar in Sindh ─ the deadliest in a series of recent attacks in the country.
