巴基斯坦西北部斯瓦特山谷地区的警方说,自杀式炸弹手袭击了一个军车队,炸死至少八人,其中包括一些儿童。

这次袭击发生在斯瓦特山谷主要城市明戈拉镇。自从去年军方清剿了该地区大部分的反叛分子后,明戈拉镇相对比较平静。军方宣称该地区现在基本上没有反叛分子,虽然军队继续在附近的部落地区打击激进分子。

另一方面,巴基斯坦官员说,他们抓获了另外一名藏匿在巴基斯坦的阿富汗塔利班领导人。

警方说,他们在瑙谢拉逮捕了卡比尔。瑙谢拉位于首都伊斯兰堡西北大约90公里的地方。

媒体报导说,卡比尔是阿富汗楠格哈尔省的塔利班首领。

自从阿富汗塔利班行动指挥官巴拉达被抓获以来,卡比尔是被抓获的第三名如此高级别的塔利班头目。 

Police in northwest Pakistan's Swat district say a suicide bomber targeting a military convoy has killed at least eight people, including some children.

The attack occurred in Swat's main city Mingora, which has been relatively calm since last year's army offensive largely drove out Taliban militants. The army claims the area is now mostly clear of insurgents, although soldiers continue to battle militants in nearby tribal areas.

Meanwhile, Pakistani officials say they have captured another Afghan Taliban leader hiding in Pakistan.

Police say they arrested Mullah Abdul Kabir in Nowshera, a town about 90 kilometers northwest of the capital Islamabad. 

Media reports say he was the top Taliban representative in Afghanistan's Nangarhar province.

He is the third such high-ranking Taliban figure to be taken into custody since the capture of Mullah Baradar, the operational commander of the Afghan Taliban.
