US mission in Pakistan issues security alert, advises Americans to avoid Peshawar hotel
Hindustan TimesThe US mission to Pakistan has issued a security alert, urging American citizens to avoid the Serena Hotel in Peshawar and its surrounding area, including the Peshawar Golf Club, until December 16. It also warned US nationals to reconsider travel plans to the region, emphasising the ongoing “Do Not Travel” advisory for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province due to persistent terrorism threats. The advisory comes even as at least 10 more people were killed and 21 others injured as sporadic clashes continued between Sunni and Shia tribes despite a ceasefire brokered between the two warring communities in Pakistan's restive northwest, police said on Wednesday. The clashes between Alizai and Bagan tribes in Kurram district started on Friday last week following Thursday's attack on a convoy of passenger vans near Parachinar in which 47 people were killed.
