US yields to Pakistan’s demand
PAKISTAN: The United States is planning to vacate a remote air
base in Pakistan that has reportedly been used for conducting
assassination drone attacks in the country’s tribal areas.
Washington is acceding to Islamabad’s demands that US forces leave
the Shamsi Air Base in Pakistan’s Balochistan province within 15 days,
Reuters reported late Tuesday. Pakistan has also blocked ground supply
routes through the country. Press TV |
