A massive blast inside a Pakistani Taliban (TTP) compound in the Tirah Valley area of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa killed at least 24 people on Monday. Witnesses report that the explosion took place in an area where explosives and bomb-making materials were kept in proximity to civilian houses. Several women and children were among the dead, generating renewed anger about the militant group’s utilization of populated areas. The cause has not been verified by security officials, but there is an initial investigation pointing to accidental detonation. The incident was denounced by human rights organisations, which demanded accountability and the safety of the civilians in the areas of conflict. The tragedy highlights the fact that instability in the border areas of Pakistan is still ongoing, as militant groups continue their operations despite military actions.

The President of Sri Lanka, Anura Kumara Dissanayake, has unveiled comprehensive economic reforms to restore the fragile economy. Other critical actions involve increasing the tariffs of electricity and reorganizing the debt-ridden Ceylon Electricity Board to enhance productivity. Most significantly, Colombo has sanctioned a medical cannabis export project valued at 100 million dollars, aiming to penetrate pharmaceutical markets in North America and Europe, in its quest to increase foreign exchange returns. The reforms are conditional as they are pegged with the IMF bailout program of 2.9 billion dollars. Although the move has been welcomed by international investors, trade unions and opposition groups have cautioned that the increasing living cost will further push ordinary citizens into poverty. The government maintains that the reforms are needed to avoid another economic meltdown.
