Security forces eliminated at least 10 India-backed Fitna al-Khawarij terrorists in two separate operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Friday.
In the first encounter on Thursday, security forces thwarted an attempted attack on security forces’ checkposts in the Azam Warsak area of South Waziristan district, the military’s media wing said in a statement.
“During ensuing fire exchange, eight khawarij were sent to hell through effective and precise engagements by own troops,” it added.
In another encounter that took place in the Dir district the same day, the security forces successfully neutralised two more terrorists.
Weapons and ammunition were also recovered from the killed India-sponsored terrorists, who remained actively involved in numerous terror activities in the area.
This is a developing story and is being updated with further details.
