Pakistan Did (or Didn't?) Hit Civilians in Attacks over the last weekend?

The Pakistanis are denying that civilians were killed in weekend strikes. Maybe WikiLeaks can corroborate it for us...

The Pakistani military Tuesday disputed reports that 80 civilians were killed in weekend airstrikes, calling the reports "absolutely wrong."

A military official told CNN there was intelligence on the ground and visual confirmation that militants were at the spot in the Tirah Valley, in northwest Pakistan, before the strikes took place.

"There was no doubt that there were militants there," said the official, who asked not to be identified because he is not the official spokesman for the Pakistani military.

A Pakistani intelligence official and a local government official told CNN on Tuesday that the strikes left 80 civilians dead in the Tirah Valley, which is in the Khyber Agency along the Afghan border.
