US drone strikes kills 25 suspected militants in Pakistan, Afghanistan
[DAWN] Atleast five suspected gunnies were killed in a United States drone strike carried out in North Wazoo's Mangroti area on Saturday.

This was the second US drone strike of the day in the Pakistain-Afghanistan border

region.

Earlier in the day, at least 20 suspected gunnies were killed in a US drone strike in Afghanistan's Nangarhar
The unfortunate Afghan province located adjacent to Mohmand, Kurram, and Khyber Agencies. The capital is Jalalabad. The province was the fief of Younus Khalis after the Soviets departed and one of his sons is the current provincial Taliban commander. Nangarhar is Haqqani country..
province close to the zero line near Pakistain's Khyber tribal region.

Security sources said those killed belonged to the murderous Moslem Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS) group in Afghanistan.

They were killed when the drone targeted suspected murderous Moslem hideouts in Nangarhar's Achin district. Several suspected murderous Moslem compounds were also destroyed in the attack.

in Pakistain's Federally Administered Tribal Areas.

Security officials have in the past warned against IS gaining a foothold in Afghanistan's eastern region, where the group reportedly murdered tribal elders, clashed with the rival Taliban, imprisoned families and enforced strict rules on women.

Afghanistan does not provide a natural constituency from which IS can recruit, meaning the group relies heavily on defections from existing murderous Moslem outfits.

Backed by US drone strikes, Afghan cops last year mobilised and eliminated multiple IS leaders along with dozens, if not hundreds, of murderous Moslems.
