US Provides Drone Intel for Pakistani Offensive
-----------------------------------------------



The Los Angeles Times is reporting the US is aiding the offensive in its
most extensive involvement in a Pakistani military campaign to date. The
US military is sharing intelligence and surveillance video from Predator
drones. It’s believed to be the first time Pakistan is using
intelligence from drone flights for a major military operation. Pakistan
rejected the use of drone intelligence during its previous offensive
against the Taliban last May.
