Four killed in North Waziristan

20 November, 2012

MIR ALI: Gunship helicopters on Monday pounded militant hideouts in North Waziristan, killing as many as four and injuring several others, according to a private TV channel.

According to reports, the gunship attacked militant hideouts in Mir Ali area of the North Waziristan Agency. Curfew has been lifted in the area after two days. An IED blast on Sunday killed two security forces officials and destroyed a tank in the region.

The US has long been demanding a military offensive in the North Waziristan where it believes Haqqani network, a string faction of the Afghan Taliban, has safe havens.
