RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: At least 76 militants including some foreigners were killed in precise aerial strikes carried out in Dattakhel tehsil of the North Waziristan agency on Tuesday afternoon, the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said.

In a statement, the ISPR said that six militant hideouts, an ammunition dump and seven explosive-laden vehicles were also destroyed in the air strikes.

It was the second time in last three days when aerial strikes took place against militants in North Waziristan’s Dattakhel tehsil where on Sunday as well at least 35 militants including foreigners were killed in air strikes.
