Militants fire rockets at scouts' camp in Bajaur
 Militants positioned on hilltops fired missiles and rockets at the Bajaur Scouts Camp at Mamoond Damangi, 30 kilometres from the agency headquarters Khar on the Pak-Afghan border, on Saturday night. The scouts returned fire with heavy weapons. Security forces deployed at the Laghrai camp also fired at the militants. No casualties were reported. Meanwhile, a jirga of elders will be held today (Monday) to discuss ways to improve law and order in the agency. Several jirga members are currently attending the Pak-Afghan peace jirga in Kabul. Around 130 members and a political agent are expected to attend the jirga on Monday.Posted by: Fred 2007-08-13 |
