Pakistani internally displaced people from the Bajur tribal region sleep on the ground as they wait to be registered at the Katcha Garhi camp in Peshawar, Pakistan, Sunday, Oct. 19, 2008. Refugees fleeing a Pakistani offensive against islamist militants say the army is bombing their homes, killing women, children and livestock. Some of them say the Taliban beheaded their relatives and terrorized their villages. Nearly 200,000 people have fled the fighting in Bajur agency to camps in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
