The Taliban have executed six American "spies."

In the Pakistani tribal zone on the border with Afghanistan, the Taliban had shot five people and put the sixth, accusing them of spying for the U.S. transfer agency AFP.

The bodies of two executed men were found on a roadside near the town of Miranshah (Miranshah) - the capital of Northern Vaziristana. Another four bodies were found near the town of Mir Ali (Mir Ali) in the 25 kilometers to the east.

Near the dead were found a note indicating that they are all punished for spying for U.S. troops based in neighboring Afghanistan.

Recall that the Federal-administered tribal area since the expulsion of the Taliban from Afghanistan in 2001, is a stronghold of Islamic militants of al-Qaida, the Taliban, "Pakistan Taliban and other factions.

U.S. has repeatedly asked Pakistan to neutralize the Islamists, but attempts by the Pakistani army and paramilitary forces from the frontier corps, had not yielded tangible results.

For its part, American troops in Afghanistan from time to time caused by the Islamists in the tribal zone targeted missile strikes from drones. In autumn 2008, the United States even conducted a ground operation in the border regions of Pakistan that led to sharp protests from Islamabad.
