At least 13 persons, including eight Lashkar-e-Islam (LI) militants, were killed and four others got injured when a Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) suicide bomber blew himself up at Dars Jumat mosque in Sandapal area of Bara tehsil (revenue unit) in Khyber Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on March 23, reports Daily Times. Official sources said that a militant was planting a remote-controlled device in the premises of the base when the LI men spotted him. They opened fire at the militant, killing him as he was trying to escape. But in the meantime, he succeeded in detonating the explosive material. The attacked LI base was being run by Yar Walil Khan, nephew of Mangal Bagh, the head of the outfit. TTP Khyber Agency chapter spokesman Muhammed Afridi claimed responsibility for the attack.

A suicide attack targeting Security Forces (SFs) on May 4 (today) killed at least 20 persons, including four Policemen, and injured over 42 others at Khar Bazaar in Khar town of Bajaur Agency in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), reports The News. The target of the attack was Levies Force. According to sources, Levies Force personnel were conducting routine checking at Khar Bazaar when a suicide bomber blew himself that killed eight persons initially. Later the toll rose to 20. A senior official confirmed that it was a suicide attack and four Policemen were killed in the blast. However, The Express Tribune put the number of Levies personnel killed at seven. An official from the area told The Express Tribune that initial reports suggested that the target of the bomber was Subedar Major Javed and Subedar Fazl Rabi, who was also honoured with the Tamgha-e-Shujaat (Medal of Bravery) award.

A suicide bomber detonated an explosive laden vehicle near the house of a pro-Government militant commander Maulvi Nabi, killing at least nine persons, including four children, three of them being girls, and injuring 13 others, in a war of attrition between two militant outfits in Speen Tall area of Orakzai Agency in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on July 21, reported Dawn. “This is basically between two militant groups,” Orakzai tribal region’s administrator Khushal Khan told the media. An official said that Maulvi Nabi, a militant commander, had waged a war of attrition against another outfit affiliated with the larger, more powerful Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). “Both groups are involved in killing each other’s men. Maulvi Nabi is not anti-state,” the official said. TTP spokesman in North Waziristan Ehsanullah Ehsan claimed responsibility for the attack. He told reporters that Maulvi Nabi was targeted because he was supporting the Government and was against the Taliban. Maulvi Nabi had joined the TTP as a commander for Hangu District, but later developed differences with the militant organisation and shifted to the neighbouring Speen Tall.

At least 15 persons killed and 40 others injured in a suicide attack in a crowded Hamid Market in Kashmir Chowk area of Parachinar town, the headquterer of Kurram Agency, in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on September 10, reports Daily Times. “The market was crowded when the attack took place and initial reports say some 10 people are dead,” an official in Parachinar said on condition of anonymity. “The bomber rammed his explosives-laden vehicle into a wall of the market and seconds later there were dead bodies and destruction all over the place,” said a local journalist working for a private TV channel. Around 30 shops were also destroyed in the market where used electronic goods were sold, the journalist said. There was no immediate claim of responsibility. However, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has acknowledged involvement in such attacks targeting Shias in the past. Parachinar is predominantly inhabited by Shias as sectarian conflict has displaced many Sunnis from the headquarters of Kurram Agency. Sectarian violence involving Sunnis and Shias, who account for around 20 percent of the 167 million populations, has killed more than 4,000 people since the late 1990s.

Two Levies Force personnel sustained injuries when a suicide bomber blew himself up in front of the office of Assistant Political Agent (APA) in Yakaghund area of Mohmand Agency. Officials said that the bomber wanted to target APA office but he failed to reach his target owing to strict security arrangements. The bomber blew himself up when he sensed that SF personnel could arrest him, they added. The Subedar Javed and Sepoy Rehman were injured in the blast. APA Fahad Wazir told journalists that the bomber was about 25-year-old and seemed a non-local. He said that about five kilograms of explosives were used in the blast.

Seven militants were killed and 15 others, including Mullah Nazir, who is considered a pro-Government local Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) ‘chief’, sustained injuries when a suicide bomber riding a motorbike blew himself up near the vehicle of the militant commander in Rustam Adda in South Waziristan Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on November 29, reports The News. Sources said that in the attack, apparently targeting Mullah Nazir, his two key ‘commanders’ were killed besides five others on the spot. Mullah Nazir, leading a large faction of militants in South Waziristan Agency, also sustained injuries in the blast. Soon after the incident, militants of the Mullah Nazir fraction besieged the area and closed Rustam Adda. Mullah Nazir, dubbed as a pro-Government Taliban leader, became prominent when he organised and led a Lashkar (militia) to dislodge the foreign militants, particularly of the Uzbek origin from Wana, the headquarters of South Waziristan tribal region, a few years ago. “The tribesmen then asked Mullah Nazir to expel foreign militants and Pakistani militants who are opposed to the Pakistani forces. Mullah Nazir promised to do this but sought some time,” a tribal elder familiar with these developments said. Mullah Nazir had also signed a peace accord with the government in 2007.
