Security forces regained control of government buildings and installations after a fierce artillery duel with local Taliban in Miramshah on Sunday, officials said. However, there were reports of sporadic clashes continuing in the area. Does this mean Talibunnie forces are inside Pakistan, with artillery?

Hopefully it means the Pakistanis pounded the Wahabi out of the Taliban forces with arty, air launched rockets, and hopefully a few (dozen) precision guided bombs dropped from fixed wing aircraft.

Mortars, probably. Cannons take more serious transportation support than a pickup truck.
