11 Killed, 7 Injured in Bus–Van Collision on Swat Expressway

KOT MOMIN: In a heartbreaking incident in Jinnah Colony, Kot Momin, six young girls lost their lives after getting trapped in a wheat storage container.

The children were playing nearby when they accidentally entered the container, which closed behind them, preventing them from escaping.
