Pakistan: Security forces kill six terrorists in separate operations
Pakistani security forces killed six terrorists during separate operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Tank and North Waziristan districts of the country, media reports said.
The Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said that on the night of June 29/30, “a fire exchange took place between own troops and terrorists in general area Manzai, Tank district. Own troops effectively engaged the terrorists’ location. Resultantly, three were sent to hell,” adding that weapons and ammunition were also recovered from them, reports Dawn News.
It further said that in another “fierce encounter” between troops and terrorists in North Waziristan’s general area of Razmak, “three more terrorists were sent to hell.”
The ISPR said the slain militants were actively involved in terrorist activities against security forces and killing innocent citizens.
It added that sanitisation of the areas was being carried out to eliminate any other terrorists found in the vicinity.
“Locals of the area appreciated the operation and expressed their full support to eliminate the menace of terrorism,” the press release issued by ISPR said.
