In 1894, when the Indo-Afghan boundary commission was delimiting the Waziri border, the Mahsud Waziris, thinking their independence to be threatened, made a night attack on the camp of the commission at Wana.
The result was the Waziristan Expedition of the same year, and the occupation of Wana by British troops.
The Wana operation started by Frontier Corps and Militia has been re-launched on Thursday with the help from Army and gunship helicopters, Secretary FATA said, yet he did not elucidate the specific number of the troops participating in the operation.

Reports reaching late on Thursday night said the Wana city, where a large number of the residents were migrating to the safer places, had been besieged by troops, curfew was imposed, and the communication links of Wana were literally cut off with the rest of the country.
