Daily Times quoting Peshawar Corps Commander Lt Gen Safdar Hussain reports that at least three Pakistan Army personnel have been killed and 22 injured while six militants were killed and one injured during the latest army push into a militant stronghold near the Afghan border. One of the dead militants belonged to a madrassa (seminary) in Karachi, Hussain said, adding that the army operation begun on November 8 would continue till militant Abdullah Mehsud was arrested and the area was cleared of Al Qaeda-linked militants. Three army brigades participated in the operation begun in several areas of South Waziristan Agency, he said, adding that troops from Jandola, Kotki, Kanigarram, Karma and Tiarzai advanced towards Abdullah’s native village, Nanoo.

The News reports that up to 40 suspected militants have been killed by the Pakistani troops hunting Al Qaeda fighters in a rugged region bordering Afghanistan this week, South Waziristan field commander Major General Niaz Khattak said on November 13. Several militant hide-outs had also been destroyed in the ongoing offensive, with an extra 7,000 troops backed by helicopter gunships pouring into tribal region of South Waziristan on November 12, Khattak said giving detailed briefing in village Nano, native village of Al Qaeda terrorist Abdullah Mahsud, to visiting representatives of foreign media based at Islamabad and Peshawar. The troops took over some militant strongholds and seized a weapons cache during the operation. "Our forces have killed some 30-40 militants this week and destroyed several terrorist hide outs," Niaz Khattak said. "My reckoning is that the number of foreign militants in the area should not be more than 100," he added. Major General Niaz Khattak also said that he had seen no indication that Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden was hiding in South Waziristan, as some experts believe. He, however, did not rule out possibility of the presence of third tier of the outfit.

Dawn reports that wanted militant ‘commander’ Abdullah Mehsud and one of Pakistan's top military commanders met last week in an effort to bring peace to the troubled South Waziristan tribal region. Speaking to Dawn from an undisclosed location, Abdullah confirmed earlier reports of his meeting with the Corps Commander, Peshawar, Lt-Gen Safdar Hussain, at Jandola Fort in South Waziristan on Nov 8. But the tribal militant accused the army of going back on their words and attacking his native village in a bid to catch him. Rejecting the government's demand for his surrender, the one-legged militant commander vowed to fight till the last man last bullet.

Daily Times reports that the Pakistan Army has recovered a huge cache of explosives and ammunition from Kanigarram in the South Waziristan Agency on November 18. "We have recovered 3,600 kilogrammes of explosives, hundreds of 82mm mortar rounds, 75mm rifle rounds, 18 107mm rockets and 40,000 rounds of different calibres," a local administration official said. Military officials in Peshawar confirmed the seizure, but gave no details. The weapons were recovered when security forces raided two compounds in Kanigarram – considered a Mehsud stronghold – on November 18. Two local tribesmen who owned the compounds were taken into custody, but were later released as they assured authorities that they had stored the explosives and ammunition in case rival tribes attacked them.

The Mehsud tribe has asked the government to return weapons and ammunition to tribesmen, which had been seized during the ongoing search operation in South Waziristan. About 700 elders and maliks of the Mehsud tribe, who gathered in Tank on November 22, condemned seizure of arms and weapons in the garb of search operation against foreign and local militants. "The government should immediately stop the operation, otherwise the Mehsud tribe would stop cooperating with the military authorities in curbing militancy in the area," the jirga members warned. They said the tribesmen kept arms and ammunition in their houses for personal security and it should not be linked with militancy in the region. The elders said the allied forces were also conducting a manhunt on the other side of the border adjacent to the Pakistani tribal territory, but they did not disarm the local population.

The US State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said on November 29 that Pakistan had withdrawn no forces from Waziristan. On November 26, Lt Gen Safdar Hussain, Peshawar corps commander, announced the removal of check posts from all parts of the Wana subdivision of the south Waziristan tribal region. At his daily briefing, Richard Boucher was asked if Pakistan had withdrawn forces from Waziristan and was discontinuing the hunt for Osama Bin Laden. He replied, "Our understanding of the situation with regard to the forces in Waziristan is it’s not a change of attitude or inclination or activity on the part of the Pakistanis. They - Pakistani officials, both publicly and privately to us - have made clear that there has been no withdrawal from Waziristan and that they remain fully committed to continuing the campaign against Al Qaeda and Al Qaeda supporters. We do expect those efforts to continue."
