Taliban militants in the North Waziristan Agency on January 20 shot dead six more people on charges of spying for the US forces stationed in Afghanistan, The News reported. Tribal sources in agency headquarters Miranshah said that two of the six slain spies were Afghan nationals. One of them, whose bullet-riddled body was dumped near the Miranshah Bazaar, was identified as Guldar Ali, hailing from Afghanistan’s Khost province. Similarly, four more bodies were recovered from the Tehsil Road near Mirali. They were identified as Shah Madeen Khattak, a barber hailing from Karak district, 65-year-old electrician Shahi Haider Khan, teenager Nisar Ali and an Afghan citizen, whose name could not be ascertained. A handwritten letter placed near the bodies blamed all the four persons for spying for the US forces on the Mujahideen. With the recent killings, the number of alleged spies killed by the Taliban rose to 24 since last month.

20 people, majority of them local tribesmen, were killed and several others were wounded in two different missile strikes by US drones in North and South Waziristan agencies on January 23-evening, The News reported. In the first incident, 10 persons were killed and several others injured when a US drone fired three Hellfire missiles on a Hujra (male guest house) of Khalil Dawar in Zyaraki village of North Waziristan. According to sources, two spy planes were seen flying over Mirali town during the strike. The guest house adjacent to Khalil’s house in Zyaraki, five kilometers west of Mirali, was razed to the ground in the attack. Sources close to the militants told The News the drone fired missiles after some guests, probably foreign militants, entered the Hujra of Khalil Dawar. They said besides Khalil, his two sons, brother Mansoor, a nephew and six other people were killed in the attack. However, a senior Government official in Miranshah said six among the dead were hardcore militants, including four Arabs and a Punjabi Taliban militant. It was the first missile attack by US spy planes in North Waziristan in 2009.

A suspected US drone fired two missiles on an alleged Taliban hideout in the North Waziristan Agency of FATA on April 4, killing 13 people, according to Daily Times. Unnamed security officials told news agencies that the dead and injured included local and foreign Taliban militants, but Daily Times could not ascertain the information. The officials said the family of the man who owned the attacked house was also killed. "The missile hit a house where some guests were staying," one intelligence agency official told Reuters. Officials use the word ‘guests’ for foreigners linked to al Qaeda and Taliban militants. A local tribal elder, Dilawar Khan, told Associated Press that the house was in the Data Khel village very close to the Afghan border. He did not know the identities of the people killed or whether there were Taliban militants staying there.

At least 25 people were killed in a suspected US drone missile attack on a seminary and a nearby vehicle in North Waziristan of FATA on May 16, locals said.

A suspected US drone strike on premises allegedly operated by an Afghan radical killed 10 suspected Taliban militants at North Waziristan in FATA, officials said on September 24, reports Daily Times. “Ten dead bodies were recovered from the debris of the house and two Taliban were wounded in the attack,” said a Pakistani security official on condition of anonymity. Another official and residents confirmed the toll. “The target was a compound of Haqqani’s men. According to our reports all of the dead belong to the Haqqani network,” the official said. The area is considered a stronghold for the Taliban and Afghan former Soviet resistance commander Jalaluddin Haqqani, around five kilometres northwest of Miranshah. The building acted as an office where Taliban militants would come to receive orders and rest between bouts of fighting across the border in Afghanistan, local residents and intelligence officials said. It was not immediately clear whether Ahmad Afghani was present at the time of the attack. The Haqqani network is a powerful group based in northwest Pakistan closely linked to al-Qaeda.

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.
