Kurram Agency...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...
on Wednesday, DawnNews reported.
The snuffies were killed in the tribal region's Marghan area.
A military offensive was launched against snuffies in the central tehsil of the tribal region on Sunday and families had started fleeing the conflict zone.
At least 400 families in central Kurram, where the operation is focused, managed to leave the area and registered with a government-run camp in lower Kurram, a government official said.
The official had estimated that thousands of families might have left the region, but many of them opted to stay with relatives rather than go to the camp.
