Militancy – Continued Battles in FATA and Terrorism

In major operations during the month, Pakistani forces claimed to have cleared Bajaur agency at the northern tip of the semi-autonomous tribal belt. Security forces gained control over the Damadola area in Bajaur Agency, which is believed to be a stronghold of militants. Chief of the Army Staff General Ashfaq Pervez Kayani claimed that the key objectives of the military operation in South Waziristan had been achieved and most of the high profile militants had been wiped out. He also indicated that development work would commence to create an atmosphere for return of the refugees.
