A large‑scale protest rally held in Mian Mandi Bazaar, the principal commercial hub of the tribal district of Mohmand, has expressed support for the Pakistan Army in their ongoing efforts against the Afghan Taliban aggression.

The demonstration saw participation from the district administration, senior officials, tribal elders and a large number of residents, who chanted slogans in favour of the armed forces and called for decisive measures to stop cross‑border infiltration and terrorist activities from neighbouring Afghanistan.
