On 21 January 2017, a bomb was detonated at a vegetable market in Parachinar, in the Kurram Valley of the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. At least 25 people were killed and 87 injured by the explosion.[5][6] Parachinar is the administrative headquarters of the Kurram Agency near the Afghan border.[7] The same area has previously seen several blasts in 2008, February 2012,[8] September 2012,[9] 2013 and in December 2015.[10]
Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Bajwa visited Parachinar and paid a visit to the injured of the bomb blast in Agency Headquarters Hospital. General Bajwa also announced plans to construct an Army Public School (APS) in Parachinar to support education of the local children.[11][12]
