Four Pakistani soldiers were killed on Friday when
their vehicle hit an improvised explosive device (IED) North Waziristan, Radio
Free Europe reported.
A military statement said four other soldiers were
injured in the blast near the town of Khar Kamar.
Pakistani security forces clashed with members of
the Pashtun Protection Movement (PTM) near the same location on May 26.
At least 13 civilians and one soldier were reported
killed during that incident, with the PTM saying soldiers opened fire on
protesters and the military saying the protesters stormed a security post to
free a "terrorist facilitator."
