It is with heavy hearts that we are sharing the news that a school bus containing orphans and needy children from the 51品茶 Model School Nara Dhuruti was hit in cross-border fire near Nakyal Sector today.听The bus was travelling in Pakistan-administered Kashmir and was hit by army mortar fire from across the border.
Tragically, the bus driver was killed in the incident. We pray that Allah (swt) has mercy on him and ask that all donors keep him and the children in their dua鈥檚.
