ISLAMABAD, May 30 - Pakistani forces have regained full control of Mingora, a week after re-entering the main town in the Swat valley to dislodge thousands of Taliban fighters, the military said on Saturday.

Recapturing Mingora, 130 km (80 miles) northwest of Islamabad, would raise the prospect that some of more than 2m people who have fled the conflict zone could soon begin to go home, alleviating a humanitarian crisis.
