A single source, The London-based Times, reported one named resident saying 60 missiles had hit Kurram Agency in the course of the month. However, no other information has surfaced suggesting this volume of strikes has hit the area.

“The drone strikes have increased significantly since the start of October. Drones fired around 60 missiles,” Sajad Parachi, a Kurram resident, told The Times. One of these attacks killed five members of the Haqqani Network, he said.

It is unclear precisely when these five belligerents were killed in October; and these deaths could have been counted in other events during the month.
