Former tribal southern Waziristan have reaffirmed their determination to stand in the shoulder with the security forces until the threat of terror is eliminated.
A large and historic Jirga of the former tribal of Mehsud and Burki took place Sunday in the region of Spinkai Raghzai, in southern Waziristan.
