PESHAWAR, Sept 22 (AFP): Pakistan police and security sources said aerial bombing in a remote border region killed at least 23 civilians on Monday in an area where militancy has been rising.
"The jets targeted four houses, which were completely destroyed," a senior police officer in the area told AFP on condition of anonymity, without saying who carried out at the deadly assault.
A security officer based in Peshawar, who confirmed the death toll, said there are dozens of hideouts belonging to the Pakistani Taliban in the area.
