Attended the funeral prayers of the brave sons of our armed forces who embraced martyrdom in Hangu. While Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is bleeding and our people are burying their sons, PTI is preparing for a long march to Islamabad. This is their answer to the blood being shed in the province they claim to represent. Standing among those coffins, it was impossible not to feel the weight of what KP has endured and continues to endure. We have buried countless sons in the fight against terrorism, and families across KP continue to pay a price that cannot be reduced to political slogans.
