"11 killed in shooting near Afghan border"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "WANA, Pakistan: Pakistani forces opened fire on a minibus when it failed to stop at a roadblock in a tribal region where anti-terrorism operations have been ongoing, killing at least 11 people, two local officials and a resident told The Associated Press.
The shooting occurred early Saturday, the morning after armed men and soldiers exchange fire at a military compound in the region. Pakistani forces have been carrying out a sweep for terrorist suspects, and tension is high in the area.
The minibus failed to stop at a roadblock in Zeri Noor, a village just outside of Wana, the main town in tribal South Waziristan, two Wana officials told AP on condition of anonymity. The officials put the death toll at 11."
