Eight militants, four troops killed in clash
2015-07-13
[DAWN] DERA ISMAIL KHAN: Eight suspected gunnies and four security personnel were killed in a clash in the Ladha area of South Wazoo tribal region on Saturday.

According to the Inter-Services Public Relations, four security personnel were killed and six others injured after the Mehsud Taliban attacked a checkpost in the area.

The security forces retaliated and killed eight attackers. Security forces carried out a search operation in the area but no arrest was reported.

In 2009, the army launched an operation against the banned Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain in the Mehsud tribe-dominated areas of South Waziristan and the region was cleared. However,
a good lie finds more believers than a bad truth...
sporadic festivities between security forces and suspected gunnies occur, particularly in Ladha, with the result that families displaced by the fighting are yet to return home.
