[Pak Daily Times] A bomb attack killed four Pakistani soldiers and wounded many others on Tuesday in the country's most notorious militant stronghold on the Afghan border, local officials said. The bomb struck on a road under construction, five kilometres north of Miranshah, the main town of the district of North Waziristan, known as a strong bastion of Taliban and al Qaeda linked militants. "An improvised explosive device planted along the roadside went off near a military truck, killing four soldiers and wounding many others," a local intelligence official told AFP on condition of anonymity. He said that the soldiers were providing security to workers building the road between Miranshah and the area of Ghulam Ali. |
