Seven persons, including five Army soldiers, were killed and nine others sustained injuries when a suicide bomber rammed his explosive-laden car into a military convoy near a filling station on the Bannu-Miranshah Road on March 30, The News reported. The dead also included an Assistant Engineer of Radio Pakistan Razmak station, Basharat Afridi, and a lady travelling in a passenger coach. However, military spokesman and Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director-General Major General Athar Abbas said the explosion was caused by an improvised explosive device planted in a roadside car. The military convoy was on its way to Miranshah, the headquarters of North Waziristan Agency, from Bannu in NWFP when it came under attack near an abandoned security check-post known as Mirzael post, located near a filling station. Officials told The News that the suicide bomber had parked the explosive-laden car right in the middle of the road and rammed it into the military convoy when it arrived at the scene. Eyewitnesses said the soldiers, after the attack on the convoy, opened indiscriminate fire that caused bullet injuries to five people, including a woman, travelling in a passenger coach from Peshawar to Miranshah. Basharat Afridi of Radio Pakistan Razmak station and the woman later succumbed to their injuries. No militant group has so far claimed responsibility for the attack.

We have plugged all escape routes for militants,” said Abbas, adding that pockets of “hardcore militants” remained. The military spokesman said the operation was progressing well despite stiff resistance by the militants. He said street fights and house-to-house search was going on in Mingora city. Athar said 18 militants were killed in Mingora during an encounter and seven others were arrested when they were trying to escape towards Buner District. He said four improvised explosive devices (IEDs) were also defused in the area. The Malakand-Qambar-Mingora road has reportedly been opened for traffic. In Qambar, SFs defused 12 IEDs and also recovered huge cache of arms and ammunition. The Kanju-Kabal road has also been cleared and fierce fighting is reportedly underway for securing Kabal. In Peuchar, the military spokesman said SFs continued a cordon and search operation and destroyed Taliban strongholds at Mano Derai. During the exchange of fire, three militants were killed while three others were arrested. A remote controlled IED was also defused at Pir Killay by the troops. Security forces have also cleared Sakhra Valley, the main route of the militants’ movement from Peuchar towards Kalam and other areas. About Buner, he said 90 percent area of the District had been cleared although some terrorists are present at Pir Baba. During search at check-posts, four militants have been arrested, he said. He added that in the night of May 25, about 100 to 120 militants attacked the Kalpani post in Dir Lower District from three directions and the attack was repulsed and militants suffered heavy casualties. Eight bodies have been recovered in close vicinity of the check-post. Two SF personnel were also killed in the incident and three others were wounded. The military spokesman rejected reports that a fresh group of trained terrorists had entered the troubled area.

In a successful 18-hour operation, the armed forces – in collaboration with Special Services Group commandos – killed four terrorists, arrested one and rescued 39 hostages at a security office outside the General Headquarters (GHQ) in Rawalpindi on October 11, ending a siege that began on October 10, Daily Times reported. Three civilians and two Security Force (SF) personnel were killed on October 11, while seven SF personnel and three civilians were injured during the 18-hour operation – which culminated in the arrest of the ringleader, Aqeel alias Dr Osman. Although Aqeel was injured, sources said his condition is stable. Six soldiers and five terrorists had already been killed in the siege on October 10. The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director-General, Major General Athar Abbas, said that two army officials were killed and seven others injured in the commando operation. Three civilian hostages were also killed in the operation, he added. The ISPR chief said eight SF personnel, including a Brigadier and a Lieutenant Colonel, nine terrorists and three civilians were killed on October 10 and 11, while the total number of injured was 15 – 12 army personnel and three civilians. He said the operation to rescue the hostages began around 6am (PST), and continued for 45 minutes in the first phase – during which commandos rescued 30 hostages and killed four terrorists. He said the five terrorists killed in the first phase were armed with suicide vests and tried to resist the troops. “The terrorists had suicide jackets, improvised explosive devices, grenades... they wanted to blow up all the hostages and cause maximum damage,” the AFP quoted him as saying. “Terrorist Aqeel alias Dr Osman was overpowered at around 9am in an injured condition when he tried to blow himself up and the rest of the hostages ... triggering a blast in adjacent offices of the security building ... five security personnel were injured in the final phase of the operation,” he said. The siege began just before midday on October 10, when terrorists in military uniform and armed with automatic weapons and grenades drove up to the Rawalpindi compound and shot their way through a checkpoint. AFP quoted a security official as saying that Aqeel was also wanted in connection with a rocket attack on former president Pervez Musharraf in 2007 and the killing of the military’s surgeon general in February 2008. “He is a known terrorist. His name is mentioned in several cases,” the unnamed official was quoted as saying.

A group of three Taliban militants launched a gun, rocket and suicide attack on the office of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), killing at least 12 people and injuring several others at Multan in Punjab on December 8, according to Daily Times.
