KURRAM: A convoy of 25 trucks carrying essential supplies arrived in Parachinar on Tuesday, marking the second such delivery since the partial reopening of the Thall-Parachinar road last week.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif informed federal cabinet members that the situation in Kurram had shown significant improvement, with some security pickets removed and the supply of essential items restored.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll stakeholders will maintain peace,\u201d he said, adding that such incidents would never happen again.<\/p>\n
\u201cBunkers, which were once established, have been demolished,\u201d he said, adding that food and other supplies were being delivered to the residents of the district.<\/p>\n
Kurram Deputy Commissioner Ashfaq Ahmed told Dawn the authorities were taking steps to provide relief to the district.<\/p>\n
\u201cTwenty-five trucks have successfully reached Parachinar after departing from Thall in Hangu,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
However, 20 other trucks could not depart due to pending clearance. He assured that efforts were underway to dispatch the remaining vehicles and to ensure the safety of the Thall-Parachinar road under a phased peace accord implementation.<\/p>\n
Residents expressed frustration over the limited relief. Haji Abid, a resident, said the small convoy of 25 trucks was inadequate after weeks of delays.<\/p>\n
\u201cThousands of people poured out of their homes to purchase supplies, but the prolonged waiting and insufficient trucks are causing more trouble,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
