Pakistan

Seven policemen were killed in a bomb attack in Swat. At least 103 have been killed since fighting in Swat began this week; the Taliban torched three girls’ schools. The Lal Masjid’s deputy chief cleric threatened to rebuild the Jamia Hafsa. The Pakistani government said it would investigate links to the bombing of the Indian embassy in Kabul.
