Pakistani air strikes on Friday killed at least 17 militants in the country's restive tribal areas bordering Afghanistan, part of a major operation against the Taliban.
The strikes came two days after the massacre of 45 minority Ismaili Muslims in Karachi claimed by Daesh group and the Taliban's Jundullah faction which has previously reportedly allied itself to Daesh.
According to Dawn News the aerial strike was conducted in North Waziristan’s Shawal area based on tip-off earlier this morning.
The air force jets targeted militants' hideouts on the edge of the Afghan border in the thick mountainous forests in the Wareka Mandi area of Shawal district in North Waziristan tribal region, 65 kilometers west of its capital Miranshah.
