Earlier on June 20, at least 22 suspected militants and six soldiers were reportedly killed in a daylong military action against the Baitullah Mehsud-led Taliban in South Waziristan as the troops cleared a portion of the Wana-Jandola Road, The News reported on June 21. Two fighter planes and a couple of gunship helicopters targeted the positions of the militants, who had occupied hilltops and blocked the Wana-Jandola Road between Tanai and Serwakai towns. Tribal sources told The News from Jandola that troops on June 19-night continued shelling the suspected militants’ positions with artillery guns. They were, however, unaware of the casualties suffered by the militants. Military officials said 32 militants were killed when two warplanes and gunship helicopters bombarded the militants occupying the road between Tanai and Serwakai. They claimed that the Tanai-Serwakai portion of the Wana-Jandola road had been cleared of the militants. The remaining militants affiliated with Baitullah Mehsud were reported to have fled their positions in the area. However, the militants denied any losses in the operation. Tribal sources said the advancing troops from Wana, headquarters of South Waziristan, were facing tough resistance from the militants in efforts to clear the remaining 20-kilometre portion of the road between Serwakai and Jandola. According to the sources, the troops secured the area beyond Tanai to Old Serwakai, New Serwakai and Madejan. The troops had started movement from Wana and Shakai, two areas inhabited by the Ahmadzai Wazir tribe.

More than 45,000 people are reportedly leaving their homes before the start of a military operation in South Waziristan, officials said on June 22, according to Daily Times. Colonel Waseem Ahmed, spokesman for a Government unit overseeing humanitarian affairs, said he expected the number to rise to at least 60,000.
