The Deputy Director General Military Operations Brigadier Moin was assassinated, along with another army official in a shootout in Islamabad on Thursday. An unknown number of gunmen attacked the brigadier’s military jeep as he left his house in the G-11/1 sector of the capital. Another army official was injured in the attack, rescue officials told. Brigadier Moin is believed to have been involved in the strategy-making for the on-going Waziristan operation against militants, as well as the Swat operation. ‘Witnesses have told us two men came on a motorcycle and opened fire,’ city police official Abdul Qadir told Reuters.
