Sources said that the rival groups are valiantly using mortar shells, rockets and other automatic weapons against each other in the fighting.
The fighter jets of Pakistan Air Force (PAF) are continuing to fly over the tribal region due to which panic has gripped the area and local residences have started migrating to other safer places.
On the other hand, Taliban claimed that they killed nine security personnel during the clashes but the claim was not officially confirmed.
