At least 20 people were killed as several missiles hit a house in South Waziristan on March 16-afternoon, Daily Times reported. Seven missiles landed on the house of Noorullah in Toog village, located four kilometers south of Wana, the headquarters of South Waziristan. Local journalist Sailab Mehsud said 20 people were killed and five others wounded in the missile attack. He said all those who died were Arabs and Turkmen, who had gathered at the house when the attack occurred. It could not be confirmed where the missiles came from, but locals told Mehsud they were fired from two unmanned aircrafts. Local people said that the house had been rented out to ‘non-local’ people about a year ago and about 20 non-local people lived there, according to Dawn. None of those killed and wounded included high-value targets, local residents and security officials said. Military spokesman Major General Athar Abbas said there were reports of blasts and some casualties in the area and the military was checking. He added that Pakistani forces had not carried out any operation in the area and he did not know who had carried out the strike or what type of weapon was used. Major Chris Belcher, a US military spokesman in Afghanistan, said coalition forces conducted an operation in the Paktika province, which lies just across the border from South Waziristan. He said he had no information about the Pakistan strike and that he doubted the two incidents were related.

The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) said on March 30 that it was ready for talks with the Government, provided that Islamabad reverses its pro-American policies, Daily Times reported. TTP leaders told a rally in the Inayat Kalay Bazaar of Bajaur Agency in the FATA that they welcomed Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani’s announcement that the Government would negotiate with the Taliban and end the Frontier Crimes Regulations. Gillani said on March 20 that fighting terrorism would be his top priority and offered to hold talks with those militants who laid down their weapons. "We are ready to talk to all those people who give up arms and are ready to embrace peace," Gillani told parliament. TTP leaders, including Maulana Faqir Muhammad, Maulana Sher Bahadar, Muhammad Ismail, and party spokesman Maulana Omar, also demanded the implementation of Sharia law and the jirga system according to tribal traditions. They also said jihad against America would continue in Afghanistan. However, they added that they were ready to end their activities and improve law and order in Pakistan if the Government showed flexibility. Faqir said Islamabad should not cooperate with the United States, AP reported. "Whenever Pakistan will work for American interests as its ally, we will oppose it," Faqir said, amid chants of "death to America". The TTP leaders said that the Taliban were defenders of the country and that Pakistan’s western border was safe because of them.
