    Four people were killed and three others were wounded in firing on a passenger coach and a vehicle near Sadda Bazaar in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Kurram district on Sunday, police said.

    District Police Officer (DPO) Muhammad Imran told media that the vehicles were targeted by gunmen with automated weapons.

    He said two security personnel were also among the deceased. Efforts were under way to find and arrest the culprits, the DPO added.

    Local tribes of Turi Bangash have called for an emergency jirga (meeting) to decide on a plan of action about the attacks.

    Last month, nine people were killed and 25 injured in a terrorist attack on a passenger bus in Gilgit-Baltistan’s Chilas.
