 (KUNA) -- A suicide attack Monday on a military checkpost in Pakistani tribal agency of North Waziristan, bordering Afghanistan, killed seven including six soldiers and the suicide attacker, said officials. The attack occurred when a suicide attacker rammed an explosive-laden jeep into a military checkpost near Miramshah, the regional headquarters, military spokesman, Shaukat Sultan said while talking to KUNA. He said the suicide attack, second in less than two months, killed six soldiers and the suicide attacker. He added that ten soldiers were also wounded.
The attack comes a day after local Taliban militants announced to hold ceasefire in the agency to find a peaceful solution of unrest in the agency through grand tribal Jirga on the conditions that the military wraps up all checkposts and release arrested tribesmen. Last month, Taliban militants warned the military of suicide attacks if they did not end all newly established checkposts in the region and also did not stop searching women. A suicide attack in the same area last month killed three soldiers and wounded four others.
