Overview and history

On January 11, 1947, Datakhel was the site of the conclusion of the Afghan tribal revolts of 1944–1947; see Surrender at Datta Khel.

On Sept 25, 2008, as an indication of escalating tensions between nations, Pakistani forces fired warning shots at American aircraft after they crossed into Pakistan's territory in the area of Saidgai, in North Waziristan's Datakhel region.

On March 17, 2011, a US airstrike that killed 44 people in the city led to widespread condemnation in Pakistan.[9]

On May 17, 2011, Datakhel was the site of a skirmish between the US and Pakistan.
