Peshawar, August 22

At least six Pakistani soldiers and four terrorists were killed on Tuesday when the outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants attacked a convoy of security forces in the restive Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, according to the military.

The attack occurred in the Asman Manza area of the South Waziristan tribal district bordering Afghanistan. The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), military’s media wing, stated four terrorists were killed in retaliatory fire while two were injured.

The banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan has accepted responsibility for the attack. The TTP was set up as an umbrella group of several militant outfits in 2007. Recently, Pakistan has been hit by a wave of terrorist activities orchestrated by the banned terror outfit.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
