Islamabad : Military jets pounded rebel hideouts in Swat valley on Tuesday, killing at least 10 people and wounding dozens, a security official said.
The air strike came despite an offer of truce during the current Muslim fasting month of Ramadan announced by the government at the weekend.
A senior security official said fighter jets bombed Ghat Peochar area following intelligence that leaders of pro-Taliban Fazlullah’s group were hiding there.
Chief military spokesman Major General Athar Abbas confirmed the bombing but said he did not have details of casualties.
