On 10 February 2024, Dawar was wounded and his three supporters killed in Miramshah when the police fired shots on them, as they were protesting against the delay in announcement of election results from the North Waziristan constituency in the Pakistani general election. The attack drew widespread condemnation, with calls for accountability for those responsible.
