]]> People in North Waziristan took to the streets to protest attacks on two girls’ schools in the tribal district’s Mir Ali area that took place on May 22.

On May 22, Government Girls Middle School and Girls Middle School in Mir Ali, North Waziristan, were hit by bomb explosions, considerably damaging the buildings.

No casualties were reported.

People gathered in Mir Ali under the banner of the National Democratic Movement (NDM) today to protest the attacks.

Pakistan has witnessed a resurgence of terrorism.

Earlier, a police officer in Swat, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa opened fire at a girls’ school van, killing a six-year-old girl and injuring seven others.

The family of six-year-old Aisha claimed that the cop had links with the Taliban.

According to witnesses, constable Alam Khan opened indiscriminate fire at a van and tried to reload his weapon when the magazine emptied to do more damage, negating police’s claim that he opened fire by mistake. While reloading his weapon, the police constable was grabbed by people, and was then arrested by the police under Sections 427, 320, 324 of the Pakistan Penal Code, Aaj News reported.
