The strikes also reportedly destroyed a number of hideouts of militants in the area.
The strikes and the damage they caused could not be immediately independently verified.
Earlier in the week, six militants belonging to Lashkar-e-Islam were killed when two Pakistan Air Force jet fighters pounded militant hideouts in the Kharmatang and Akka Khel area.
The strikes also razed two hideouts to the ground.
Continuous military operations in the area have forced its residents to seek temporary refuge elsewhere.
