Pakistan´s army says it has arrested six senior aides of radical cleric Sufi Muhhamad, whose son in law commands Taliban forces in the Swat valley. This follows a suicide bombing during Friday prayers at a mosque in the Upper Dir district which killed dozens.
Dir is the hometown of Islamic leader, Maulana Sufi, who brokered a ceasefire in the neighboring Swat valley between Pakistan´s army and the Taliban. But intense fighting began shortly after, when the pact fell apart. Since then an estimated 3 million have fled the violence and left their homes and are now living in camps for internally displaced people.Under these circumstances many in Pakistan – and in the region - listened to President Barack Obama´s speech in Cairo.
