At least 90 persons were killed when a suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden pickup truck in the middle of a volleyball game in the Shah Hasan Khel village of Lakki Marwat District in the Bannu Division of the North West Frontier Province (NWFP) on January 1, according to Daily Times. Police said more than 60 persons are being treated at local hospitals. Local Police chief Ayub Khan told Reuters the bomber blew himself up in an SUV in the middle of the field and there was believed to be a second vehicle, which fled the scene. Khan said the bomber drove a vehicle loaded with around 250 kilogrammes of high-intensity explosives into the field, which lies in a congested neighbourhood. Some nearby houses collapsed and “we fear that some 10 or so people might have been trapped in the rubble.” Khan said that more than 20 houses, on both sides of the open ground where the match was being played, had collapsed. In addition, a group of local tribal elders was holding a meeting at a nearby mosque. The mosque was damaged and some people inside were killed, he added further. “Four paramilitary soldiers are also among the dead,” he informed. Another Police official said that some 300 people were on the field when the incident took place. A large number of them are said to have been elderly residents and children. Meanwhile, the NWFP Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain said the death toll might rise further, adding, “The locality has been a hub of militants. Locals set up a Lashkar (tribal militia) and expelled the militants from this area. This attack seems to be a reaction to their expulsion.” Security Forces have cordoned off the village.

PTI reports that cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) blew up a gram panchayat (village level self-Government institution) office building and a go down in Malkangiri District during a bandh (general shut down) called by the outfit on January 2 against alleged Police excesses. Around 50 armed Maoists attacked the gram panchayat office at Panasput in Chitrakonda area of Malkangiri and drove away those inside before triggering an explosion, Police said. The Maoists also stormed a go down located near the office and blasted it with explosives before disappearing into a nearby forest, they said. Nobody was harmed or injured, they added. Meanwhile, the bandh called by Maoists in Orissa and four other States against alleged Police excesses and the proposed anti-naxal operations had little impact barring stray incidents of tree felling in Malkangiri and disruption of traffic in Rayagada District. Many Government buses stopped plying in Malkangiri and Rayagada Districts, where trees were used to block roads.

Pakistan Army is reported to have set a vast portion of grass on fire on its side opposite Balakote sector in Mendhar tehsil (reenue unit) of Poonch District in the night of January 6 with a view to divert attention of SFs on this side. The fire spread into Indian territory in the morning of January 7 leading to a series of mine explosions on both sides of the Line of Control (LoC). Official sources said there was no immediate threat to civilian population on Indian side as the fire was still across fencing but added that it was spreading very fast as there was a huge growth of ‘sarkanda’ and grass on either side of the LoC. There were specific inputs that fire, which spread from Pakistan Army’s posts of Kandli and Khara opposite Balakote sector, was a deliberate act of the Pakistan Army to keep LoC active for some days as there was no way to control the flames.

Six unidentified persons, who were killed in a bomb blast in the Baldia Town of Karachi in the morning of January 8, were identified as five militants and one civilian, according to Dawn. An initial investigation stated that six militants had come to the house at about 3 am (PST) on three motorcycles. They were guests of Ayaz, younger brother of Riaz who was living in the house with his mother, wife and three children. All the militants were in their late teens or early twenties. Five of the dead militants were identified as Riazul Hasan, Mohammad Husain, Shahbaz Lahori, Asif and Zahid. Ayaz was also killed in the blast, while his brother Ibrar was injured. A portion of a house was destroyed in what was described as an accidental blast. "We heard a loud bang at about 7:45am and saw two bodies lying in the debris. A Kalashnikov rifle was beside the bodies," a eyewitness said. Police found a cache of arms and ammunition and suicide vests strapped to the two bodies in the house. The suicide vests were fitted with grenades, they added. The suicide vest of the third militant accidentally triggered the explosion, causing a grenade to explode, investigators said. Police recovered several cartons of tinned food, jihadi literature, books and CDs, stickers of Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) and Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP) pasted inside a trunk containing certifications of graduation from a seminary, cell phones and several SIMs from the debris of the house. Three AK-47 rifles with several dozen rounds, over 25 hand grenades, anti-personnel mines and a pistol were also recovered, Baldia town Superintendent of Police Zahid Husain said.

Three United States (US) troopers and four female students were among nine persons killed when a blast targeted a military-led convoy in Lower Dir of North West Frontier Province (NWFP) on February 3, according to Daily Times. The US troopers were travelling in a convoy with local troops, journalists and officials to the opening of a girls’ school. At least 115 persons, including 95 schoolgirls, were also injured in the attack. While the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said an improvised explosive device (IED) was used in the attack, the Associated Press said there were conflicting reports about the source of the blast. Some officials said it was a roadside bomb detonated by a remote control, while others claimed it was a suicide car bomb. A statement by the US embassy in Islamabad said that the US troopers killed in the attack were training Frontier Crops (FC) troops on a request by the Pakistani Government. “Three Americans were killed and two injured in an explosion,” according to the statement. A statement by the Pakistan Army said the dead included a FC soldier. However, it said three “foreigners” were among the injured. Lower Dir District Police Chief Mumtaz Zarin said that nine persons, including four schoolgirls and “three foreigners”, were killed in the remote-controlled blast.

At least 25 persons were killed and over 100 others, including women and children, wounded in twin blasts in Karachi as the city marked Hazrat Imam Hussain’s chehlum (40the Day after death) ceremony on February 5, according to Daily Times. The sources said that the first explosion occurred at around 3:03pm (PST) in the Shahrah-e-Faisal area of Karachi targeting a bus taking 30-40 mourners to the city’s main chehlum procession at Nishtar Park, killing at least 13 people and injuring another 50. City Police chief Waseem Ahmad told the media while a motorbike fitted with an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) was used to carry out the attack, it was unclear if a bomber was riding the bike or it was parked and detonated when the bus passed by. The second explosion, which killed around 12 persons and wounded dozens of others, took place at around 4:55pm at Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre, where those injured or killed in the first explosion were being taken amid a crowd of victims’ relatives and the media. The blast at the medical centre targeted the building’s parking lot in front of the emergency ward. Several vehicles, including ambulances, were also damaged in the attack. Crime Investigation Department (CID) Senior Superintendent of Police (Operations) Fayyaz Khan said the latest attacks did not appear to have any link with another blast on December 28, 2009, which targeted Karachi’s main Muharram procession, as they were carried out using devices connected to cell phones and placed inside boxes positioned on bikes. BDS official Muneer Sheikh described the attacks as “suicide bombings”, and said a dead body found from the site of the first blast could be of the bomber. He said at least 15-20 kilogrammes of explosives were used in the first attack, while around 10 kilogrammes were used in the second. He said nuts, bolts and ball bearings were also found from the sites of the attack, and the “bombings appear similar to the Ashura attack”. The Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik has described the attacks as incidents of “sectarian violence”. In addition, the National security institutions for probe into Karachi blasts said that there is similarity between the February 5’s twin blasts in Karachi and blast on M A Jinnah Road on Youm-e-Ashur on December 28, 2009. The accused used similar nut-bolts and other parts in the manufacturing of bombs used for these blasts, it said. According to Police sources, preliminary investigation showed that Korangi group of Jandullah is behind the Karachi blasts. Meanwhile, Jandullah sources strongly rejected its involvement in the blasts in Karachi and said that they were not behind these blasts.

The Taliban militants on February 26 carried out coordinated suicide attacks at two hotels in Kabul, the capital city of Afghanistan, killing at least nine Indians, including two Major-rank Army officers, reports The Hindu. At least 10 others, including five Indian Army officers, were injured in the strike that killed eight others, including locals and nationals from other countries. The bombers, believed to be three in number, struck at the guest houses, particularly at Park Residence, rented out by the Indian Embassy for its staffers and those linked to India’s developmental work in Afghanistan. External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna said that as per the preliminary information provided by Afghanistan Government officials, “up to nine Indians...have lost their lives.” “A few Indians have been injured, most of whom are reported to be out of danger. Arrangements are being made for their adequate and expeditious treatment, if necessary, by evacuating them to India,” he said in a statement. However, sources in the Indian embassy in Kabul said that six Indians were confirmed dead. IBN Live quoted Indian Ambassador in Kabul Jayant Prasad as saying that it looked like a 26/11 (November 26, 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks) type attack specifically targeting Indians. "Six Indians died in yesterday's [February 26] attack. It was a 26/11 type of attack. The attackers searched each and every room and killed people," added Prasad.

The Army officials said there were strong indications that senior Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) ‘commanders’, including Maulvi Faqir Mohammad, Maulvi Abdul Wali, Qari Ziaur Rahman and Omar Rahman alias Fateh, were killed or injured in heavy bombing by the Army gunship helicopters in Pindyali tehsil (revenue unit) in Mohmand Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on March 5, according to The News. "We have struck some hideouts of militants in Pindyali, where, according to our intelligence reports, Faqir Mohammad, Omar Khalid, Qari Zia and Fateh from Swat were hiding," an Army official said. He added that they had learnt from their local sources that the militant commanders were present in the hideout during the attack and could have been killed or injured. The officials, however, did not provide further details about the number of the militants and their identity, who were killed or injured in the bombing. Faqir Mohammad is ‘chief’ of Bajaur Taliban militants and ‘deputy leader’ of the TTP. According to officials, Fateh, a dreaded militant ‘commander’ from Swat, whose real name is Omar Rahman, had come to Bajaur along with his fighters when a massive military operation was launched by the Government in 2009. Ziaur Rahman, according to the officials, was earlier operating in the Charmang area of Bajaur and had put tough resistance to Security Forces (SFs) during early days of the military operation launched on August 6, 2008. There were also reports that Qari Ziaur Rahman later went back to Afghanistan on the intervention of Afghan Taliban ‘commanders’, where he was appointed the ‘commander’ for the Marawara area in Kunar province of Afghanistan.
