| An umbrella group of Islamic militants said on Monday it was responsible for a suicide attack on a military convoy that killed five civilians and four soldiers in northwestern Pakistan. The suicide bombing on Sunday evening in the Swat region also wounded 13 civilians and 10 soldiers. “That was just a warning shot. The government should expect more if our demands are not met,” said Maulana Mohammed Umer, a spokesman for the newly formed Tehreek-e-Taliban, a coalition of Islamic militants committed to waging holy war against the government. |
