Attack in Lower Dir

The attack in Lower Dir claimed the lives of more than seven people, including an anti-Taliban militia leader and his son.

Attacks on anti-Taliban militia have increased in the past few months. This trend is dangerous because these militias are helpful in checking the activities of extremists in the region.

This war has taken another turn and the extremist forces are now focused on destroying these militias. However, the real face of Taliban has been exposed and most of the tribes are now against Taliban and other extremists fighting in the region.

This war will only yield results if the locals start identifying the rogue elements among them and help in establishing the writ of government.
