US attacks condemned in Pakistan

Pakistan: The Legislative Assembly in Balochistan province strongly condemned the bombings by unmanned US planes against a Pakistani tribal zone.

The Assembly also passed a motion rejecting Washington's intention to extend the range of attacks to areas of Balochistan.

According to a US paper, Barack Obama recently received two intelligence reports asking for authorization to extend the attacks against alleged Islamic rebel targets.

The motion, presented by the Jamiat Ulema Islam (JUI-F) Party, calls upon the Pakistani federal government and other institutions to adopt a firm stance over possible US attacks against Balochistan.

The latest US bombing against a village in the tribal region of Kurram left 24 people dead and 40 others wounded.
