| [Dawn] Three militants were killed as a bomb exploded near central Kurram on Monday, DawnNews reported. According to official sources, the militants were planting the bomb near the basic health unit in Dogar in central Kurram, but the bomb went off prematurely killing all three of them. Meanwhile, in the Masozai area of Kurram, militants blew up the house of a tribal elder, who was considered to be a staunch supporter of the government. Militants -- both local and non-local -- are present in large numbers in lower and central Kurram and have so far destroyed several schools, health units and government offices in the region. Security forces have been able to clear majority of the areas during the on-going operation. |
