Checkpost Stormed by Militants in Peshawar, Pakistan​

Over 100 militants launched an attack late Friday night on a checkpost in the Sarband area of Peshawar, a major city in northwestern Pakistan, a source in Peshawar told Xinhua on telephone.

According to the source who is a local journalist in Peshawar but declined to be named, an estimated 120 militants attacked a checkpost located some 30 kilometers southwest of downtown Peshawar at about 11:00 p.m. local time.

Some local media reports said only 50 militants were involved in the attack. The exchange of fire between the militants and police is still going on there, said the reports, adding more police have been called in to reinforce the checkpost under the attack.

Details about the militants and casualties are not immediately available at this point.

As the checkpost is located near the tribal area of Khyber Agency which borders Afghanistan, it often falls under attack by militants, said the local media reports.

Of course you do know that this area was targeted by AFGHAN Taliban 5 times in the past month?... Read in-between the lines:

The United States and other foreign powers are engaged in preliminary talks with the Taliban about a possible settlement to the near decade-long war in Afghanistan, Afghan President Hamid Karzai said

On Thursday Afghan border guards fired on Pakistani and Afghan tribesmen in the area who were holding a demonstration.

On Thursday, more than 200 militants from Afghanistan stormed a Pakistani village in tribal areas near the border, wounding at least two women.

'Wassup With pakistan? Any tom dick harry terrorist comes in group across the border and directly take on mighty pakistani army at their own Forward millitary posts ?'

That was the arrogantly provocative and uselessly sarcastic part which wasn't needed at all.
And, by the way, the check-post has been targeted since sometime now, and there were no casualties, the courageous Afghan foreigners getting afraid by some mighty Pakistani policemen.
So you can sleep calmly Tanna Tanni
