Share:
Gunmen killed two police officers who were guarding vaccination teams in Pakistan's Bajaur district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, which borders Afghanistan. The attacks occurred in two different areas of the district on the first day of a new vaccination campaign. Health workers and their police escorts frequently become targets of attacks in Pakistan, where vaccination campaigns face regular violence from militant groups who view immunization efforts with suspicion.
