Pakistan Attacked U.S. Soldiers in 2007

Both countries made their investigations classified.

Tensions between the United States and Pakistan might have boiled over long before the death of Osama bin Laden: Pakistani troops attacked U.S. soldiers in 2007, killing one and wounding several others, according to The New York Times. The attack happened in Teri Mangal after a meeting between U.S. officers and Afghan and Pakistani officials settling a border dispute. It involved several gunmen, intelligence officers, and military officers. The motive, the Times suggests, was retaliation for an accidental attack by the U.S., although it’s not clear: both the U.S. and Pakistani governments have made their investigations classified, hoping to minimize damage to relations.
