Taliban will turn cities of settled areas into seas of fire battlefields if the government scraps its truce with them, ARY TV reported Tehreek-e-Taliban spokesman Maulvi Umar as saying on Monday. Talking to the channel, he said the Taliban had signed the truce with the NWFP government after “careful consideration” and that they would adopt a “new course of action” after Rehman Malik’s statement that the truce had been scrapped.
