An Islamic State (IS) commander and his two accomplices were killed in a bomb blast in North Waziristan on Monday, reports claimed.
Commander Khawaz Chimtoo belonged to the Hafiz Gul Bahadur group.
Chimtoo reportedly joined Da’ish, commonly known as IS, ISIS or ISIL, after Operation Zarb-e-Azb was carried out by the Pakistan Army in the area.
There are conflicting reports that the explosives had been planted by members of his own group. However, it is also believed that an opposing faction had planned the attack.
