Pakistani and US spokesmen have given directly conflicting accounts of the incident. A Pakistani military official said US forces bombed the strategic Pakistani checkpoint after his country’s troops repulsed 30-40 Afghan government soldiers who had attempted to occupy a strategic location on the Pakistani side of the border in the Soran Dara area.

A security official told Pakistan’s Daily Times that the Afghan army, backed by US forces, tried to set up a post inside Pakistani territory, yet retreated upon the Frontier Force’s request. Anti-US militants then attacked the Afghan troops, who called for US air cover, the official said on condition of anonymity. US forces then bombed the area relentlessly, he said.
