Pakistani security forces made a sweep in Pakistani Kashmir, arresting two dozen members of front groups for Lashkar-e Tayiba. The offices of the Jama’at al-Da’wa were targeted and among those arrested was “top Lashkar commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi.”

The US is applauding the rumored strike by the Pakistani military.
