Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton arrives in Pakistan today to hold talks and press the country to crack down on the Haqqani network to facilitate the process of reconciliation in neighbouring Afghanistan.

Yesterday Army chief General Kayani warned the US against any unilateral action in the tribal belt that is considered a safe haven for the Haqqani network and other militant groups.

Kayani said that Pakistan was a nuclear power that could not be compared to Iraq or Afghanistan. The US would "have to think ten times" before taking any unilateral action within Pakistan, he said.
