The article mentions a few times that the victims were being "transported" in a convoy between two points. But it never mentions for what reason. What was the reason for the travel, and why was it done in a convoy? Criticalthinker (talk) 08:20, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Criticalthinker, the area of Kurram has been pretty notorious for secterian conflict with major examples being 2007 Kurram Agency conflict and 2023 Kurram Parachinar conflict and there were two major incidents of secterian violence in the area this year, the Shiite being a minority and often the major target of secterian violence have to travel in the form of convoys for their safety and are escorted by police, Paramilitary and military forces, this particular convoy was of over 200 vehicles with 700 person's traveling and was escorted by police forces, that's the reason.

No, I think I understand that. I'm ask what was the purpose of the trip to Peshawar? Was this for shopping, medical visits...seems like a noteworthy piece of information to include in the article. Criticalthinker (talk) 21:39, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
