PESHAWAR: At least five militants including a key commander were killed and three others were injured on Wednesday in a remote controlled blast in the Shaktoi area of South Waziristan, officials claimed.
The official sources said that the incident was a continuation of the ongoing infighting between rival factions of Taliban, the Sajna and Shehryar Mehsud groups.
The commander who was killed in the blast has been identified as Amir Hamza.
The militants killed in the incident have not been identified as yet.
Earlier clashes between the Sajna and Shehryar Mehsud groups had left scores of militants killed on both the sides.
The dispute was resolved according to the Taliban sources with the help of the Afghan and local Taliban commanders.
