Three of their hideouts were destroyed by fighter jets near Zara Mela and Para Chamkanni in a crackdown against militants.
Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa is on the frontline of a nearly seven-year domestic Taliban insurgency and suffers near-daily bomb and shooting attacks blamed on militants.
Attacks between security officials and the militants have seen a rise forcing the residents of tribal areas to seek refuge elsewhere, often without ample food and water supplies.
On May 7, militants took control of several security check-posts in the Masuzai and Para Chamkani mountainous areas of Central Kurram, Haji Sadeen Khan said. On May 9, a heavy gunfight erupted between security forces and militants in the area, forcing the families to flee for safety.

imran khan has already condenmed this and asked nawaz to stop these attacks and shot down drones
PTI must condemn and stop this...
Otherwise, there`s no difference between PPP/PMLN and PTI..
@Logic Gate: when the militants have taken control of the check posts manned by state . . So instead of sending the jets to dislodge the militants you suggest that judiciary should send a summon to them . Will you undertake to deliver the summon?. you need to change your name/ ID
Dollars at Work. There is No Need for judiciary Branch in Government. let Army / Agencies be The, Judge, Jury and Executioner. All Muslim Countries Follow this System. Iraq, Libya, Syria are the result of This System. We need to Reorganise our judiciary Branch From Scratch.
Is PTI now going to condemn these attacks?
