Bill Roggio's summary of the report on summary of the reported killing of Hakimullah Mehsud (noting the previous incorrect reports of his death in 2010) over at the Long War Journal.
For the record, the Times of India reports the Tehrik-i-Taliban are denying the reports of Mehsud's death. Interestingly, though, the source for the Times' story says that "most of the victims were foreigners," which is a euphemism for al-Qa'ida operatives in Pakistan's tribal areas, and that a majority of those killed were Turkmen.
