Fighter jets pounded terrorists' hideouts in Rajgal and Tirah valley in Khyber Agency close to Pakistan-Afghan border last night, killing at least 21 terrorists and injuring several others, according to Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
Four militant hideouts were also destroyed in the air raid, the statement said.
The Pakistan military intensified its 'Zarb-e-azab' offensive launched in June last year in militants' stronghold of North Waziristan, after the deadly Taliban attack in an army-run school in Peshawar in which 150 people, including 136 students, were killed.
