A total of 220 schools were reportedly blown up by the militants in Swat, during the ongoing wave of militancy while more than 10 private institutions were also destroyed. More than 60,000 students could not appear in the intermediate exam and all of them are now living in other cities as displaced persons. This was revealed in a report released by the Global Peace Council (GPC) on June 3. President of the GPC, Ziaullah Yousafzai, while addressing a press conference at the Peshawar Press Club, said the 92-year-old infrastructure of Swat had been completely destroyed during the insurgency in the valley. He also said students of the entire District were vulnerable to the post traumatic effects and most of them had already developed psychological diseases.

We are 90 percent certain the terrorists attacked the convoy to kill the two men,” he said. “We were told by the TNSM leaders during negotiations that the Taliban were threatening them. So, there should be no doubt in anyone’s mind about who carried out (Saturday’s) attack,” he added.

A Policeman was killed and two people were wounded when a roadside bomb blast destroyed a Police van near the Hazarkhwani village, triggering a crackdown on a religious seminary in the limits of the Agha Mir Jani Shah Police station in Peshawar on June 8, The News reported. The explosion also created a six-foot-deep and five-foot-wide crater in the Hazarkhwani Road near the Akhun Darveza Baba graveyard. “A party of the Agha Mir Jani Shah police station had set up a barricade on the Hazarkhwani Road, while the official van with its driver, Amir Nawaz, was also parked at some distance from the cordon,” said a Police official. Terrorists reportedly detonated explosives, planted at the roadside just under the vehicle, with a remote-controlled device when the rest of the Policemen were busy searching vehicles entering the city limits at 5:10 pm, the Police official said.

A massive truck bomb explosion at the five-star Pearl Continental hotel in Peshawar, the NWFP capital, at approximately 10.20pm on June 9 killed 11 people and injured 60 others, Daily Times reported. The attackers entered the compound on two vehicles at about 10:30pm, firing at the security guards at the hotel gate with bullets from one and blowing up the other in the hotel parking. “It was a suicide attack,” Capital City Police Officer Sefwat Ghayur told AFP. “There are two foreigners among the dead,” NWFP Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain said. However, he did not reveal their nationalities. Among those who were injured are the ruling Awami National Party’s minister Zarshed Khan, Senator Nabi Bangash, UN officials, three foreigners and an airline’s crew, The News reported. 40 vehicles parked in the compound were destroyed and the building was seriously damaged. A Bomb Disposal Squad official told reporters at least 500 kilograms of explosives were used in the attack. Khyber Road, where the explosion occurred, is a sensitive area with the NWFP Assembly and several Government and military buildings located there. A number of foreigners, most of them associated with aid agencies, were reportedly staying in the hotel. A private TV channel said the dead included UNHCR official Alexander Joseph from Russia. 16 other UNHCR officials were injured and one was missing. The injured also included an official from the World Food Programme, another from the World Health Organisation and two from UNICEF, it said. Another TV channel said a foreign female journalist was also injured. The Associated Press said US officials were in negotiations to make the premises an American consulate. Citing two senior US officials in Washington, it said the State Department had been in negotiations with the hotel’s owners to either purchase the facility or sign a long-term lease there to house a new American consulate in Peshawar. Lou Fintor, spokesman for the US Embassy in Islamabad, said all diplomatic personnel were accounted for. “At this point we have no reports that any Americans were at the scene,” he said.

A previously unknown Al Qaeda-linked group, the Abdullah Azzam Shaheed Brigade, claimed responsibility for the suicide attack, The News reported. A spokesman of the organisation, Amir Muawiya, telephoned reporters in the Kohat city of NWFP on June 10, claiming responsibility for the attack and threatened more such bombings. He said the bombing was in retaliation to the operations by the Pakistani armed forces, at the behest of the US, in Swat and rest of the Malakand region and also in the tribal areas of Darra Adamkhel and the Orakzai Agency. Amir Muawiya was a Pakistani Taliban commander operating in the semi-tribal area of Darra Adamkhel, located between Peshawar and Kohat. According to Amir Muawiya, the central Shura, or council of the Taliban and also al-Qaeda, had decided that only the Abdullah Azzam Shaheed Brigade would claim responsibility in future and others would keep quiet.

Foreign missions have suspended their activities in Peshawar, capital of the NWFP, following the June 9-suicide attack on the five-star Hotel Pearl Continental in which 17 persons were killed. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the World Food Programme (WFP), the American Consulate in Peshawar and several other diplomatic missions and international bodies suspended their activities in the city by directing foreign officials to restrict their movement. The WFP also suspended its operations, but its activities for the internally displaced persons (IDPs) of the Malakand Division will continue. Two foreign UN officials, Serbian national Aleksandar Vorkapic of the UNHCR, Perseveranda So of the Philippines working for the UNICEF, and three local officials of the United Nations Population Fund, Muhammad Miskin, administration relief assistant, Muhammad Tahir and a driver Muhammad Fawad, were among those killed in the suicide blast. A UN official said four of the wounded UN workers included Gordon Brown and Augustine Fredrick of the WFP, Adili Motupotu of the World Health Organisation and a UNICEF intern, Anna Ciger. According to the sources, 22 foreigners were inside the hotel when the blast occurred. The wounded foreigners included a Somali national, three Nigerians, a US national girl and a German.
