Taliban claim shooting down army helicopter in Pakistan
The Taliban have claimed responsibility for shooting down a Pakistani military chopper that crashed in the Bajaur tribal area, killing at least six people as they announced a "full scale war" against security forces amid a major anti-militancy campaign in the restive northwest.
The helicopter, which was returning after dropping fuel and rations at a remote military post, crashed due to "hostile fire," CNN reported.
It quoted an intelligence source and a local political official as saying that the helicopter was "brought down by hostile fire."
Faqir Mohammad, who reportedly had a narrow escape during a US drone strike in Bajaur Agency yesterday, however, claimed that 30 security personnel were killed when the helicopter crashed. His claim could not be independently verified.
