2010-07-13 |
[Dawn] A government official says a roadside bomb struck a vehicle carrying paramilitary troops in northwestern Pakistan, killing one soldier. Local administrator Jehanzeb Khan says Monday's attack in Sanghar village in the Orakzai tribal area also wounded four other troops in the vehicle. The Pakistani military declared victory in Orakzai in June after pounding Taliban militants in the area for months with airstrikes and artillery. But militant attacks and military operations in the area have continued. |
