Sixteen pro-Taliban militants were killed in clashes with security forces in Pakistan's restive tribal belt even as the country's north-west witnessed a string of violent incidents on Sunday. Troops killed seven militants and injured over a dozen more during an operation in Azam Warsak area of South Waziristan Agency, TV news channels quoted officials as saying.
Clashes between Pakistani security forces and Taliban militants have left 36 people, a majority of them rebels, dead in Bajaur tribal region over the past three days, military sources said.
