Taleban kill Pakistan general
A roadside bomb killed a Pakistani general and another officer on Sunday near the border with Afghanistan, the Pakistani army said.
So much for the peace movement...
The major-general and lieutenant-colonel were visiting troop positions in the Upper Dir district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, along the Afghan border, when their vehicle hit a bomb killing them and a soldier.

“Maj-Gen Sanaullah and Lt-Col Touseef embraced Shahadat (martyrdom) this morning. They were returning after visiting troop posts on Pak-Afghan Border,” the military said in a statement. “Sepoy Imran also embraced Shahadat (martyrdom), two soldiers injured in the blast have been evacuated,” it added.

Taleban spokesman Shahidullah Shahid claimed responsibility for the bombing.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in a statement condemned the blast.
He had to.
“Pakistan army has made substantial sacrifices to protect the nation against the menace of terrorism and such cowardly acts by terrorists cannot deter the morale of our armed forces,” Sharif said.
