Pakistan: Ahead of action against militants, security forces asks residents of Tirah to leave

Khyber: Pakistan security forces have directed residents of  Sandana, Dray Naghari and Sanda Pal localities to  vacate their houses in anticipation of a small-scale military operation against militants following recent attacks on security forces.

Sources in Bara told Dawn that local security commanders held a meeting with residents of Sandana area on Wednesday morning after a late night attack attack on the personnel deputed in the area.

They said Sipah tribesmen, who inhabit the area, were given choice to either hand over the suspects involved in the attack or vacate their houses so that a military action could begin to flush out the miscreants.

Official sources also told Dawn that at least nine suspected persons were arrested during a search operation in Sandana and Nangrosa localities, both inhabited by Sipah tribesmen.

It was learnt from local sources that a number of families, who recently returned to Dray Naghari area, had once again started vacating their houses after receiving instructions from security forces.
