Cellular service in far Waziristan?

In a story from the AP about fighters for both sides of the conflict in Afghanistan and Pakistan they say that the reporters cell phones were confiscated by the local militia. This makes me think the story is a fake. Unless the cellular phones they use in Pakistan are far superior to ours here in Knoxville, they couldn't possibly be getting service in a war zone.

The story:

It just doesn't make logical sense that a geurilla war would be fought with intact cell towers all over the place.
Something smells to high heaven about this.
