ISLAMABAD :The military said Monday that 52 militants had been killed during an offensive against Taliban militants in the district of Swat over the last 24 hours.
"(The) operation against miscreants by security forces is making headway... In the last 24 hours, 52 miscreants have been killed and five wounded during the exchange of fire," the military said in a statement.
Interior Minister Rehman Malik earlier said more than 700 militants have been killed in the northwest, although such official tolls are unverifiable and authorities have not released any information on civilian casualties.
