Pakistani warplanes kill 20 militants near Afghan border
The Pakistani military say the air force has pounded militant hideouts in a tribal region along the Afghan border, killing 20 suspected militants.
It says three of the suspects were training future suicide bombers in the Tirah Valley of Khyber region.
Thursday's strikes came a day after warplanes killed 22 militants in North Waziristan, where the military last week claimed to have routed insurgents in a major offensive launched last year.
