Pakistani military carries out airstrikes targeting militants in North Waziristan
Islamabad, Pakistan (CNN) — The Pakistani military carried out airstrikes in the countries northwest early Wednesday, targeting alleged militant hideouts in the volatile region.
In a statement, the military said that there were “reports of 32 terrorists killed” in the attacks in North Waziristan, a loosely governed tribal area that borders Afghanistan.
The military carried out a series of strikes in the region, considered to be a stronghold for extremist groups, earlier this year.
