Wana check post: Rocket attack leaves one security man dead
DERA ISMAIL KHAN:
One security man was killed and three others were injured when militants fired eight rockets at a security check post near the Kari Kot Chowk of the Wana Bazaar and Scouts Camp, North Waziristan early Sunday morning.
Conflicting reports about the death of civilians surfaced after the incident. While an intelligence official told The Express Tribune that six civilians, including two women had died, the local political administration insisted that only two women had perished.
Security forces retaliated and the exchange of fire continued till dawn, with both sides using heavy and light weapons.
Seven people have been arrested from Karam Kot and taken to an undisclosed location by the security forces, the political administration said.
The security official killed was identified as Zakar Hussain Thori and the three injured were identified as Fida Mehsud, Amen Marwath and Nisar Kundi. The three injured personnel were shifted to a military hospital located in the Wana Scouts Camp, official told The Express Tribune.
Early on Sunday, security forces made announcements through loudspeakers and warned people in Wana Bazaar and the surrounding areas to vacate the region before launching a search operation.
Shortly afterwards, security forces, backed by gunship helicopters and tanks, entered Wana Bazaar and started a manhunt for militants belonging to the Mullah Nazir group.
Forces demolished the commander Malang’s office in the Shah Alam Adda area and commander Shamsullah’s office located close to the Wana Floor Mill in Wana Bazaar.
They also demolished a market and three shops which were reportedly being used by militants for attacking the Aman check post. Curfew was imposed and all the link roads to Wana Bazaar were sealed with all traffic and pedestrians barred from the area during the search operation.
Commander Shamsullah was killed in a drone strike about three months ago in Angor Tehsil of Wana sub-division of South Waziristan. Rapa Khan Zale Khel took over as the new commander in his place. Earlier, Malang was also seriously injured in a drone strike in the Mandatha area of Tehsil Birmal.
A resident told The Express Tribune, on the condition of anonymity, that there was “black smoke” over the Wana Bazzar and no one was allowed to go towards the area.
A shopkeeper, who was trapped in the Wana Bazaar inside his shop during the nighttime firing and managed to escape in the morning, said that he came across three shops which were razed to the ground and there were bullet holes on other shops.
“I am lucky enough to have come out alive from Wana Bazzar,” he said.

these terrorists are the ones who are terrorizing innocent people; affecting their business and also affecting the local economys
they only focus on death rather than life -- so death to them
regardless of cause --- these sectarian groups need to be wiped out with a vicious iron fist

Provincial unrest: Blasts in K-P, FATA kill five
PESHAWAR: At least five people were killed and four others injured in a series of explosions in parts of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Fata).
Peshawar
A woman was killed, while her four children were injured when unidentified assailants hurled a hand grenade at a house in Bachi Korona area of Nasir Bagh, on the outskirts of Peshawar. A police officer at the Nasir Bagh Police Station said the motive behind the attack was an old feud.
Tirah Valley
In Khyber Agency, three people were killed after a remote-controlled bomb planted in a car detonated near Mastak area, security officials said. All passengers were members of the Zakhakhel tribe.
Swabi
A 16-year-old boy was killed when a gas cylinder exploded in a factory in Gadoon Industrial Estate, District Swabi. An officer at the Gadoon Police Station confirmed the incident and said the blast occurred at a beverage factory called Muslim Cola. “Waqas Kapoor was working alone in the factory at that time since other people had left for lunch,“ he added.
Jamrud
In another blast, a house was destroyed in Molagori area of Jamrud subdivision Khyber Agency. According to Shakeel Ahmad, a political administration official in Molagori, the house was detonated near Marble Chowk. Fortunately, no causalities were reported. “A small amount of explosives were planted around the boundary wall of the house,” he said. But a local tribesman denied the report and said militants had planted the bomb to destroy a gambling den in the area.
Jalozai
An Improvised Explosive Device (IED) exploded inside a tent at the Jalozai Camp. Jan Akbar, a police officer at the Jalozai Police Station said the blast burnt down the tent, but there were no fatalities because no one was inside the tent at that time.
Soon after the explosion, police launched a search operation at the camp in which several suspects were arrested. “We have shifted them to an undisclosed location for interrogation,” SHO Jan Akbar said.

Revenge of militants: Suicide attack targeting militia chief kills two
PESHAWAR:
A suicide bomber targeting the chief of a tribal militia has killed two people and wounded another five on the outskirts of the city.
The bomber targeted a vehicle carrying aides of Fahimur Rehman, the chief of Bazid Khel Aman Lashker, on Canal Road, in the Bazid Khel area – just outside Peshawar on Tuesday. Rehman, however, remained unhurt.
The bomber, in his teens, detonated the explosives strapped to his body when the vehicle cruised past. The blast destroyed the vehicle, killing two men – a cousin and a security guard of Rehman – and injuring five others.
Luckily, Rehman remained unhurt because he was travelling in another car.
The injured – four passersby and a community police constable – were ferried to Peshawar’s Lady Reading Hospital (LRH).
Soon after the attack, Rehman’s furious supporters gathered at the site and fired gunshots into the air, whipping up fear among local residents.
Rehman told The Express Tribune that they were travelling to Peshawar in two separate vehicles on two different routes.
“When one of the vehicles reached a bridge on a canal, the suicide bomber jumped on it and detonated the explosives,” he said.
He blamed militants for the attack – but refused to name any particular group. He vowed to avenge the death of his aides.
Shafiullah, the superintendent of police (Rural), confirmed to The Express Tribune that it was a suicide attack. Bomb Disposal Squad chief Shafqat Malik said around eight kilogrammes of ‘high explosives’ were used in the attack.
