A military search and cordon operation in North Waziristan on Saturday led to the arrest of two locals, a military official said. Rocket propelled grenades, rockets and hand-grenades were also seized from them, said the official, who asked not to be named. The operation was launched in the Madakhel tribe area near the border with Afghanistan, said a senior government official in Miranshah, the agency headquarters of North Waziristan. "The residents described seeing two foreigners after which a large number of army personnel were dropped in the area by helicopter," said the official. |
