s on Wednesday, DawnNews reported.

Four Islamic fascisti were also killed in the ensuing festivities.

In one of the attacks, Islamic fascisti ambushed the Sarband checkpoint before dawn. The checkpoint lies just outside the town of Bara in Khyber district, part of Pakistain's tribal region on the Afghan border where Taliban and al Qaeda-linked networks have bases.

In the second attack in the Khyber tribal region, a kaboom occurred at a tribal police checkpoint in the town of Jamrud. The blast killed a policeman and maimed three others, Khyber administrator Shafeerullah Khan said.

"One tribal policeman was martyred and three others were maimed in the kaboom at the checkpoint," Khan said.

A third attack took place in the Orakzai Agency.

A covert US drone war targets Taliban and al-Qaeda commanders in Pakistain's rugged northwest tribal region and kabooms there are common.

Nearly 4,500 people have been killed across Pakistain in attacks blamed on Taliban and other bad turban networks based in the tribal belt since 2007.
