*Pakistan Taliban: Military 'kills five militants' (BBC, Dec 20, 2014):*
"Pakistani security forces have attacked Taliban positions in two
operations near Peshawar, killing five fighters, the military says. The
operation comes days after the Taliban stormed a Peshawar school, killing
141 people, mostly children. Pakistan is on alert, with security stepped up
at prisons following the execution of jailed militants. There are fears
that Taliban may attack prisons to free militants due to be executed.
Pakistan decided to lift a moratorium on executions in response to
Tuesday's school attack. The first executions were carried out on Friday,
among them a former soldier sentenced for attacking the army headquarters
in 2009. Pakistan has announced it will execute more militant prisoners in
the next few days. The UN Human Rights office in Pakistan appealed to the
government to reinstate the moratorium, saying it would feed into a cycle
of revenge.
Pakistan has ordered the military to help secure prisons to thwart any
attempt by the Taliban to free prisoners.
