Those injured were shifted to a nearby hospital. No militant group has claimed responsibility for the incident so far which might have been an attack. North Waziristan is a safe haven for the Pakistani Taliban militants and other terror groups including the al-Qaeda.
The attack comes amidst efforts by the government to find a solution to indiscriminate violence through talks with the Taliban.
This is the first major attack on Pakistani military in the recent past.
