Pak security forces raided two Death Eater hideouts in a former Taliban

stronghold near Afghanistan, triggering shootings that killed four soldiers and two hard boys, the military said on Friday.

The first raid was carried out in the Tank district in the northwest, killing two Death Eaters, the statement said.

The other strike was carried out in the North Wazoo district, capturing a Death Eater before four soldiers died in the fighting. The military said troops seized a cache of weapons during both raids.

The military provided no further details about the slain soldiers and detained Death Eaters.

North Waziristan served as a Death Eater stronghold for decades. The military carried out a full-fledged offensive in the region after an army-run school was attacked in December 2014 in the 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 Pakistain's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire...
city.

The attack, claimed by Pak Taliban, killed 147 people, mostly schoolchildren.

The latest violence in the northwest comes a day after a roadside kaboom went kaboom! outside a college in southwestern city of Quetta, killing six people and wounding at least 13 others.
