Nato Attack On Pak

Gunmen killed eight people in an attack on Monday on a Pakistani army camp in a city where hard-line Islamists stopped on their way to the capital to protest the decision to reopen the NATO supply line to Afghanistan, police said.

A US drone targeted a compound in the restive North Waziristan tribal region on Friday, killing 21 suspected militants in the first such attack since Pakistan reopened NATO supply routes to neighbouring Afghanistan.

The Pakistan Taliban will attack lawmakers if they decide to re-open NATO supply routes to Afghanistan, the militant group's spokesman said on Sunday, a threat likely to complicate efforts to mend severely strained relations between the United States and Pakistan.

Pakistan would allow US military trainers, who were kicked out of the country following the November 26 NATO raid, to return as early as April or May and would also reopen the crucial supply route for the coalition forces based in Afghanistan.

Pakistan may continue blocking NATO supply convoys into Afghanistan for several weeks and would not rule out closing its airspace to the United States, Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani said on Sunday.

Pakistan's prime minister says his country wants to rebuild ties with the United States despite Islamabad's ongoing retaliation for deadly air strikes on its troops by the U.S.-led coalition in Afghanistan.

Pakistan's military on Wednesday released footage showing what they said was the aftermath of the NATO airstrike that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers. The video shows, what appear to be, several damaged buildings in a mountainous area and a cloud of smoke rising.

Following appeals from the US and Afghanistan, Pakistan Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani today said the country cannot attend the crucial Bonn meet on the future of Afghanistan if Islamabad did not receive assurances from the world community about its security and sovereignty.

A Pakistani general says the military believes the NATO attack that killed 24 Pakistani troops was a "deliberate act of aggression."

NATO forces may have been lured into attacking friendly Pakistani border posts in a calculated maneuver by the Taliban, according to preliminary US military reports on the deadliest friendly fire incident with Pakistan since the Afghanistan war began.

The Obama administration on Saturday pledged a full investigation into a NATO attack that allegedly killed 24 Pakistani troops. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta in a joint statement offered their "deepest condolences" for the loss of life in the cross-border incident in Pakistan. Clinton and Panetta also ...

The firing by NATO helicopters and combat jets on Pakistan soldiers has added further strain to already tense Pakistan-US relationship.

Pakistan on Saturday accused NATO helicopters of firing on an army checkpoint in the northwest and killing 25 soldiers, then closed a key border crossing used by the coalition to supply its troops in neighbouring Afghanistan.

One person was killed and another injured when militants attacked a NATO container truck in southwest Pakistan today.
