US Resumes Surveillance Sharing in Pakistan
-------------------------------------------



In Pakistan, the US has resumed sharing surveillance gathered from
military drone flights across Pakistani tribal areas. The spying
cooperation comes as the Obama administration is rushing the delivery of
military equipment, including helicopters and body armor, to bolster
US-backed Pakistani military operations against Taliban forces. Pakistan
says it’s preparing for a major offensive to hunt down Taliban leader
Baitullah Mehsud in South Waziristan.
