ORAKZAI: At least 19 Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants were killed as two armed rival groups of Hakimullah Mehsud’s commanders clashed over a disputed check post in the Aa Khel area of upper Orakzai.
The groups belonging to Hakeemullah Mehsud’s faction of the TTP exchanged fire after commander Sakhi Hafiz forcibly removed guards from the Aa Khel check post.
The check post was previously under commander Ziaur Rehman's control.
Intense firing is still continuing in the area and more casualties are expected. — DawnNews
