The dead reportedly include key commanders of the two groups - Shaheryar Mehsud and Waliur Rehman factions - who have been fighting since April.
Yesterday, Ashiqullah Mehsud of Shaheryar Mehsud group was killed in a deadly clash in Mirali tehsil.
Dozens of fighters from both sides have been killed in these clashes. Last week, the Waliur Rehman faction broke away from the TTP, accusing the group of criminality.
The infighting began in South Waziristan Agency and later spread to Tank district and North Waziristan Agency.

@Asad@NYC There nothing as such good. All of them have been at the forefront in killing our loved ones. Once they would kill anyone in IK's family, he would also talk of action against them without any difference.
Only if our Democratic leaders knew how to do it(like English did) they did not have to wage a war or destroy cities & public properties.
This infighting usually happens when America leaves - its part of design of withdrawal. Watchout for the low undercut of these anericans. Can be deadly like the attack on Bharia shadi ghar complex. As to imran being right - such great perception can be mrs imran's idea not mr.
@Asad@NYC:
You had me until the last three words. This policy of distinguishing between 'good' and 'bad' militants is what got us in this mess in the first place, and until we resolutely decide to act against militancy - regardless of affiliation - any kind of progress will only be a temporary quick fix.
So, Imran Khan was right all along to negotiate and that will divide the enemy and it will be easier to go after the bad ones
God is great.
This is the moment to seize.
We should befriend Enemy of our Enemy and put the hardline faction of ttp to an end.
