Paks whack four gunnies in Swat
Four down, four hundred thousand to go.
ISLAMABAD - At least four pro-Taleban militants were killed on Tuesday as helicopter gunships continued to pound their positions for the second consecutive day in Pakistan’s volatile north-western valley of Swat, officials said. Government forces destroyed four bunkers of the militants in Sambat area in the Swat district, 160 kilometres from the North-West Frontier Province (NWFP) capital Peshawar, the military said.

‘According to the information that we have received from the local sources, four insurgents were killed in the strike,’ army spokesman Major General Waheed Arshad told Deutsche Presse-Agentur dpa. ‘We have also destroyed a check post the militants had set up to tax the people in a nearby area,’ he added. Five people were wounded in the incident.

After around a week-long unannounced ceasefire the government forces resumed operations on Monday.
