3 soldiers martyred, 5 wounded as roadside bomb explodes in South Waziristan
|
[DAWN] At least three soldiers bit the dust and five others were maimed in a roadside kaboom blast in South Wazoo near the Pak-Afghan border on Thursday, officials said.
The soldiers were reportedly carrying out routine search operations in Makeen Tehsil of South Waziristan district when the kaboom took place, local officials told AFP.
While there was no immediate claim of responsibility for the kaboom, the military has been battling Taliban
...Arabic for students ...
and Al Qaeda linked Death Eaters in the region for years.
Violence across the country has declined in recent years following a series of military operations along the border with Afghanistan, but turban groups are still able to carry out deadly attacks.
There have been a number of fatal assaults in recent months in the northwest, as well as in Balochistan...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
The army launched an operation in mid-2014 to wipe out turban bases in the area and end the near decade-long insurgency that has cost thousands of lives.
The operation was intensified after the Taliban massacred more than 150 people, the majority of them children, in the attack on the Army Public School (APS) in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar
 ...capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa administrative and economic hub for the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. Peshawar is situated near the eastern end of the Khyber Pass, convenient to the Pak-Afghan border. Peshawar has evolved into one of Pakistan's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire.
in December 2014.
