Militants attack homes of anti-Taleban elders

Zabit Khan says the attacks early Monday in the Mohmand tribal area were nearly simultaneous. More than 80 militants assaulted the homes of Malik Ghazi Gul and Malik Mian Gulab with grenades and machine gun fire.
Khan said Gul was critically wounded along with two guards and an unidentified woman. His 12-year-old son was killed.
Gulab was not wounded, but his brother, son and nephew were killed. Two women at Gulab’s house were also wounded.
Both homes were located in the Safi area of Mohmand. Gul and Gulab were members of an anti-Taleban militia.
