JALOZAI, PAKISTAN - JULY 13: Pakistani women displaced from their homes, due to the Pakistan Army's latest military offensive in the Bara area of the Khyber Tribal Region in Northwest Pakistan, hold their National identity cards in their hands as they wait, with their children, to register themselves at the Jalozai UNHCR Camp for Internally Displaced Person's (IDP's) on July 13, 2012 in Jalozai, Pakistan. The remote Tribal regions of Pakistan have been off-limits for Polio outreach vaccination teams due to security risks from militants. Since January of this year, thousands of IDP's from the Bara area in Khyber Tribal Region, have been forced to flee their homes due to the latest offensive by the Pakistan Military against militants in the area.'It has been a window of opportunity for us to be able to vaccinate people from the Tribal regions during this last influx (of IDP's) from Bara' said Dr Imran from the Merlin Clinic at the Jalozai Camp.
