The Army's well planned military operations to rid North Waziristan of militants has been a major success, there is a sharp drop in acts of terrorism throughout Pakistan. The frequency of militants attacks was 154 per month, it has now come down to 71 per month; less than 50%, following in one year almost to a 6 years low. The major success has been denying the militants the space to move around in freedom in their own logistics areas, arms dumps, bomb- smoking factories, field hospitals, etc even Rest and Recreation (R & R) areas for their war weary and war wounded. With 89% of North Waziristan cleansed of militants, they are now cornered in some pockets in difficult mountainous terrain.
