A Pakistani official rejected on Wednesday an Afghan army general’s claim that Pakistanis were killed along with Taliban in an anti-militant operation in southern Afghanistan. Afghan General Moheydin Ghori said on Tuesday that up to 56 fighters were killed on Monday, including “lots of Pakistanis,” in a NATO-led sweep through a Taliban stronghold in the southern province of Helmand.
A military spokesman in Islamabad, however, said the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan and Afghan officials, after being contacted by Pakistani officials, had “denied that they made any such claim in the press about killing Pakistanis in the operation”.
| Since they aren't Pakistanis, you won't mind if we kill them all, will you? |
