Security forces blitz militant hideouts in Orakzai
2012-07-23
[Dawn] Pakistain's security forces' fighter jets pounded thug hideouts, killing a dozen gunnies and injuring another five in various areas of Orakzai agency on Sunday, DawnNews reported.

Three thug hideouts were destroyed in the attacks.

The Arclight airstrikes targeted four hideouts in the remote Ghaljo and Dabori areas of the northwestern Orakzai Agency
... crawling with holy men, home to Darra Adam Khel, the world's largest illegal arms bazaar. 14 distinct tribes of beturbanned primitives inhabit Orakzai agency's 1500 or so square kilometers...
, military officials said. The locations were being used by members of the Pakistain Taliban.

The corpse count could not be independently verified and gunnies often dispute official figures.
