Khyber Pakhtunkhwa authorities have revised the figure of coronavirus cases detected in the province today, citing "earlier miscommunication".

KP relief department spokesperson Latifur Rehman had earlier in the day said 15 new cases of COVID-19 were confirmed in the province today.

However, Zain Raza, a member of the KP health minister's team, later told Dawn.com that the number of new cases confirmed today was 4, not 15.
