SECURITY & SAFETY
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa recorded 605 security-related incidents from January to August 2025, claiming 138 civilian and 79 police lives, with August alone seeing 129 attacks, including the killing of six army personnel.
In Swat, the resurgence of Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) activities has heightened fears, echoing the valley's dark history from 2007–2009. Residents report increased patrols, but locals call for community-led safety measures over military operations. The Swat Qaumi Jirga has convened emergency meetings to promote vigilance and peace dialogues, urging federal support to prevent further unrest.
