Clarification

Bureau Report 2017-07-05
PESHAWAR: A front-page report regarding a drone strike published in Dawn`s Tuesday issue under the headline, `Drone kills four IS men before US senators` visit`, had wrongly identified the place as South Waziristan.

The strike, in fact, had occurred in Margha Laman, an area in Afghanistan`s Paktia province.

The drone strike killed Pir Agha, a commander, and three fighters associated with the Afghan Taliban.

The error is regretted.
