By Iqbal Khattak
PESHAWAR: Eighteen people, mostly women and children, were killed on Friday morning as missiles allegedly fired by US aircraft hit three houses in Bajaur Agency near the Afghan border.
“The killings occurred in my neighbourhood. Eighteen people, most of whom were women and children, were killed and buried in a mass grave,” Bajaur Agency Member of National Assembly (MNA) Haroon Rashid said.
In Waziristan things are no better:
On January 7, some troops of the US-led coalition forces in Afghanistan crossed over into North Waziristan and conducted a search operation on Pakistani territory. They arrested two tribesmen and took them away.** Later, a US helicopter also fired on the house of a religious leader in the area, killing eight tribesmen, including two women and a child.**
Just a day after this incident, a tribal jirga in North Waziristan demanded the withdrawal of security forces from the area.
y should we blame US when pak army is not stopping them and actually letting them do what they want! unfortunately the US’s technology needs 2 b upgraded! i only blame pak army musharraf and the generals for this, they should wear choorian, and go to herra mandi in lahore!
