Pakistan denies shelling religious school
The Pakistani army has denied reports that it shelled a religious school in South Waziristan on Tuesday. Spokesman Major General Shaukat Sultan said reports of the attack in Makin, 100km (60 miles) north of the main town of Wana, were "baseless".
"These 'reports', they mean nothing."
Local witnesses said walls of the school crumbled and the house of the religious head was also hit by shells. Earlier on Tuesday, officials in the Afghan border region had said they believed foreign militants and local supporters were taking shelter in the mud-built compound of the religious school in Makin. The school is run by his Excellency the Maulana Mohammad Shafiq Mehsud.
