Four soldiers were reportedly killed during a rocket attack on a Pakistan Army camp in the South Waziristan Agency on January 9, several hours after a military operation in the area in which three houses of tribesmen were demolished for allegedly harbouring "foreign terrorists". An Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) spokesperson while confirming the deaths said that a stray rocket fell in the army camp at Zeray Noor village near Wana. Unnamed official sources were quoted as saying in The News that at least four RPG-7 rockets targeted the camp where a brigade of the Pakistan Army was deployed to assist in the operations against Al Qaeda and Taliban suspects. Meanwhile, Mohammad Azam Khan, political agent of South Waziristan, said "Preliminary probe showed that the rockets came from the south from an area inhabited by the Zalikhels, a section of the Wazir tribe. We would now initiate action against the Zalikhel tribe under the terms of the territorial responsibility."

Three Chinese engineers working on a sea-port project were killed and eleven persons, including nine Chinese nationals, sustained injuries in a car bomb attack near Gwadar, about 500 kilometers west of Karachi, near the border with Iran on May 3. The attack reportedly occurred early in the morning as a bus carrying at least 12 Chinese workers was proceeding to the Gwadar port. According to Sattar Lasi, the chief of police in Gwadar, "A car was parked near the port and it exploded as the bus reached the port.'' He also said it was not clear if it was a suicide attack or if the car was exploded by a remote control device. Police suspect that it could either be the work of Islamist terrorists or hard-line Baluchi nationalists, who are against the Gwadar project. The engineers were working on a sea-port project in Gwadar which is partly aided by China. This is the first major attack on foreign workers since a suicide bomber killed 11 French engineers outside the Sheraton Hotel in Karachi on May 8, 2002.
