Pakistan

A suicide bomber killed one policeman in an attack on a Special Branch station in Islamabad. Intelligence indicates Baitullah Mehsud has dispatched more than 20 Uzbek suicide bombers to Pakistan’s major cities. The Taliban murdered two “US spies” in North Waziristan, and bombed a girls’ school in Mardan. Security forces detained nine extremists in Khyber.
