22 soldiers were killed and 35 others injured in two separate attacks by militants in North and South Waziristan agencies on June 28, The News reported. In addition, 22 militants were also killed in the day-long military operations by Security Forces (SFs) in the region. 20 Pakistan Army soldiers, including a senior officer, were killed and 35 others sustained injuries when dozens of militants, affiliated with Taliban commander Hafiz Gul Bahadur, ambushed a military convoy in the Madakhel area of North Waziristan Agency. Further, 12 militants and two soldiers were killed in the ongoing offensive in neighbouring South Waziristan Agency. Ahmadullah Ahmadi, a spokesman for the Hafiz Gul Bahadur-led Taliban in North Waziristan claimed responsibility for the attack on the military convoy and warned to continue similar attacks on the SFs in the region till the US drone strikes were not stopped. Ahmadi phoned The News from Miranshah and claimed 60 soldiers were killed and 15 vehicles were destroyed in the ambush. The Pakistan Army spokesman Major General Athar Abbas confirmed the attack and said 12 soldiers were dead and 10 others wounded. Athar Abbas told The News that 10 terrorists were later killed when the Pakistan Army gunship choppers targeted positions of the terrorists where they had ambushed the military convoy. Official and tribal sources said the convoy was traveling from Madakhel to Wocha Bibi area near the border with Afghanistan when ambushed by the militants. The militants first attacked the military with an improvised explosive device (IED) and then started firing with heavy weapons. Sources said the militants used heavy weapons, including rocket-propelled grenades, mortar shells and AK-47 assault rifles. After the attack, the militants reportedly took away weapons and other items from the slain soldiers. Gunship helicopters later targeted militant positions in the area. It was the second attack on military convoy by the Hafiz Gul Bahadur-led militants in North Waziristan in a week. In an earlier attack near Miranshah, four soldiers were killed and 20 others injured.

The Pakistan Army on July 1 ruled out launching a military operation against the Taliban in North Waziristan and pledged to honour the February 17, 2008 peace accord signed with the tribes despite the unprovoked attacks against its troops, The News reported. However, violence continued in the area as three persons, including two women and a child, were killed and six others sustained injuries when military helicopters targeted Madakhel village in the morning of July 1. The bombing was reportedly in retaliation for the recent attack by the militants on a military convoy in which 30 soldiers were killed and 35 injured. Six other villagers, including four women and two children, sustained serious injuries in the shelling by helicopters. Amidst apprehension about an imminent military operation in North Waziristan, the Pakistan Army reportedly dropped leaflets written in Pashto and Urdu from helicopters to assure the tribesmen that it had no intention of launching action in the agency. The leaflets pointed out that some ‘miscreants’ were trying their best to destroy peace and damage ties between the Government and Utmanzai Wazir tribes.

Five militants were killed and four others sustained injuries in a drone attack on a suspected hideout of the Taliban in Badar village, about 30 kilometers from Razmak in the North Waziristan Agency, on July 17. Sources told The News that a CIA-operated spy plane fired two missiles at the house of a local cleric, Maulana Abdul Majeed. The Badar village near Gharium is located on the border between North Waziristan and South Waziristan. According to sources, the five militants killed in the drone attack had come from the adjacent South Waziristan and were affiliated with the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) chief Baitullah Mehsud. It was not clear as to whether the village cleric Maulana Abdul Majeed, whose house was reportedly targeted, died in the air strike or not.

Nine persons were injured when helicopters attacked a number of houses in a village near Miranshah in North Waziristan in the morning of July 27, Dawn reported. Sources said the houses were damaged by rockets fired by two Cobra helicopters. "My family was preparing breakfast when helicopters started heavy shelling," said Prof Ayub Rehman of the Government college. Four people, including a woman and two children, were injured. Local people said that five passersby were also injured. The helicopters were apparently sent to attack the house of Siddiqullah, a local commander of the Baitullah Mehsud group. Officials said the attack was carried out under the Federal Crime Regulation (FCR) because local people had not fulfilled their responsibility.

A suicide car bomber rammed his vehicle into a checkpoint in North Waziristan on July 28, causing an explosion that killed two Security Force (SF) personnel and injured five others, The News reported. The bomber aimed for a checkpoint some three kilometers north of Miranshah, local Government official Rehmatullah said. Two intelligence officials confirmed the casualty figures and said the wounded include three paramilitary soldiers. Ahmadullah Ahmadi, a spokesman for the North Waziristan Taliban commander Hafiz Gul Bahadur, claimed responsibility for the suicide attack. He said the suicide attack on the SFs was a reaction from the Taliban against the silence of the Government over the US drone strikes in North Waziristan Agency, in which, he claimed, innocent tribesmen, including women and children, had died. He threatened to continue attacks on the troops if the drone attacks were not stopped.

The Security Forces (SFs) were only a few kilometres from Srarogha, the stronghold of the Hakeemullah Mehsud-led Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), on the 12th day of the Operation Rah-e-Nijat in South Waziristan Agency on October 28, The News reported. Sources said some militants were fleeing to North Waziristan from the Srarogha side and via the Shawal Road from Makeen due to increased pressure from the advancing troops. Local sources said the troops were heading for Srarogha after getting full control of Kotkai and securing the surrounding areas and ridges. "The next important point is Srarogha, where a tough battle is expected once the troops get close," said a political administration official. The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said 25 militants were killed and a huge cache of arms and ammunition were recovered. Five soldiers sustained injuries in the clashes and in attacks from the militants in different areas, it added. The ISPR said SFs made considerable progress on the Kotkai-Srarogha axis and secured the area overlooking the TTP stronghold of Srarogha. Eight militants were killed and three soldiers were wounded in incidents in that area. The statement also said 25 Taliban training centres and nine caves were destroyed in Kotkai while three more training centres were overrun in the Murghaband area. According to tribesmen, the Kaniguram village on the Shakai-Kaniguram axis is a strong base of militants, where mostly Uzbeks were based. The troops secured an important area of Karwan Manza, located two kilometres east of Kaniguram. SFs also continued a search for militants and arms in Nawazkot, a strategic village located on the Razmak-Makeen axis.Local sources said that the SFs would be able to capture the high points of Asman Manza after getting control of Kaniguram, which is currently under a siege. Control over Asman Manza and Karwan Manza would enable the troops to advance on Kokatkhel, Karama, Delay, Mashta, Badar and other areas of Ladha sub-division and Sarwekai, the sources said. They added that six militants were killed and four injured in a clash with the SFs in the Sherkot area. Fighter planes bombed TTP hideouts in Ladha, Maidan, Patwelai and other areas, but there were no reports about casualties. The ISPR chief, Major General Athar Abbas, while addressing a press conference in the federal capital Islamabad, said Uzbek fighters had made Mehsud and other tribes hostage, adding that Mehsud tribes were not linked with these foreigners. "As soon as the area is cleansed from terrorists, including foreigners, the Mehsud tribesmen will return to their area to resume their own system," he said. Abbas said it was confirmed, through interceptions, that TTP ‘commander’ Waliur Rehman was present in the area but nothing could be said about Hakeemullah Mehsud. He rejected the impression that the TTP had made a tactical withdrawal from Kotkai to launch another assault, saying that the Taliban leadership was on the run.
