| Unidentified men fled with four weapon-laden army trucks in Dara Adam Khel on Thursday, Aaj TV reported. Taliban spokesman Maulvi Umar claimed responsibility while talking to BBC Urdu from an undisclosed location. He said the trucks and the crew had been moved to “a safe location”. Aaj TV said the trucks were seized on their way from Peshawar to Bannu but the drivers had been released. The Dara Adam Khel political administration arrested 32 tribesmen after the incident and seized nine vehicles, the channel said. Umar denied government claims that it had reoccupied Taliban-controlled areas. He said seven Taliban militants and 15 soldiers were killed on Thursday. |
