ISLAMABAD — Pakistani forces killed up to 90 militants in two battles yesterday in the South Waziristan region on the Afghan border, the military said.
The clashes came two days after hundreds of militants overran a paramilitary fort in another part of South Waziristan, dealing the military a setback in its efforts to defeat the al Qaeda-linked militants.
Government forces attacked a large number of militants who had gathered yesterday to attack another fort in the region, at Ladha, killing 50 to 60 of them. In the second incident, militants ambushed a convoy and 20 to 30 of them were killed when security forces fought back.
