The violence began when three students were killed for refusing to pay "tax" at a check post set up by the bandits near Darpakhel village, west of Miranshah. As they heard the news of their peers’ death, the students reportedly came out with arms, including rocket-launchers, to avenge their killing.

Militants have begun to open recruiting offices in North and South Waziristan to recruit fighters against the Pakistan Army and US forces in Afghanistan, indicated a report appearing in an American newspaper on December 12. The Christian Science Monitor reports from Islamabad that videos released by the militants, and sold in local shops as part of their recruitment drive, show militants training openly. The militants have also reportedly held public gatherings, the most recent in October to mark the year anniversary since the Pakistan military bombed a militant camp in Dela Khula, killing 40 of their comrades. The newspaper points out that the harsh edicts and an upsurge in violence suggest that Waziristan is not stable. It quotes observers as saying that the area is slipping back into the hands of Al Qaeda and Taliban militants, despite the 60,000 Pakistani troops and paramilitary personnel deployed there.

Dilawar Khan Wazir, a Wana-based tribal journalist working with BBC World Service, told Daily Times on December 16 that he was the target of the explosion. "It is no longer safe to live in Waziristan as journalist and I have made up my mind to migrate to a safer place somewhere in Pakistan," he said. On December 4, a school Dilawar’s family was running was targeted when a bomb went off damaging the boundary-wall of the school.
