Local representatives from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's Tirah Valley in Pakistan testify to the massacre by the Pakistani military. The provincial branch of Imran Khan's party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, labels it as 'jet-bombing' on its own citizens. Abdul Ghani Afridi, a member of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly, expressed strong displeasure over the attack by the Pakistani military. He stated that our own 'protectors' brutally martyred innocent children, youth, and women, painting the earth with blood in Tirah Akakhel, which is an open crime against humanity.
In Tirah Valley, the Pakistani Air Force dropped eight bombs using JF-17 fighter jets, and at least 30 people died in these attacks, including children and women. The attack by the Pakistani military on its own citizens destroyed a large part of the village, leaving bodies scattered everywhere.
A person named Feroz Baloch, who identifies himself as a reporter in his biography and reports on human rights issues, shared heart-wrenching images of innocent children killed in the attack. These pictures serve as evidence of the Pakistani military's crimes. He wrote on X, "17 innocent civilians, mostly women and small children, were martyred in the Pakistani army's bombing in Tirah Valley."

Legislator Abdul Ghani Afridi presented heartbreaking pictures of children killed in this attack. Here, the children murdered in the Pakistani attack lie on beds. One by one, as a person uncovers the sheets over them, they break into tears.
Were those innocent children terrorists?
It should be noted that the Afridi tribe suffered the most casualties in this attack. He presented poignant images of the attack site on X, "The Pakistani jet bombing in Upper Tirah Akakhel has triggered a mini-apocalypse. The valley where children once laughed and played is now filled with their tiny bodies. The yards where mothers wove dreams for their sons resonate today with rubble and cries. The blood of young men and the mangled bodies of innocent girls declare that no limit of oppression was spared. Were those innocent children terrorists clasping toys in their hands? Were those mothers criminals for lighting prayer lamps in their homes? No! This is sheer atrocity."

Now, no tongues will speak
A supporter of Imran Khan named Zia, posted a photo of a child killed in the Pakistani attack, asking, "This isn't Gaza or Syria, but Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. But this time your anger will remain silent because it's a child from a poor family of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa; now, no tongues will speak, no one will bark, no one will babble."
Propaganda cannot hide genocide
MQM leader Mustafa Azizada shared images and questioned the Pakistan government, "This is a very tragic event. Are these innocent children terrorists? The government must answer."
A person named Faheem Marwat directly blamed the Pakistani army for the attack. He wrote, "ISPR is busy spreading lies while dead bodies of Pashtun children are being pulled from the rubble in Tirah Valley. Labeling villages as 'terrorist hubs' will not erase the truth, the Pakistani army bombed innocent Pashtun children and women. Propaganda cannot hide genocide.
Meanwhile, the government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, has admitted a mistake in this matter. According to Dawn, a senior police officer from the area, on the condition of anonymity, stated, "Jet fighters targeted and completely destroyed four homes."
A statement issued by the Chief Minister's Secretariat announced that following the incident, Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur declared 1 million Pakistani Rupees for each affected family.
