Pakistan Army says 29 terrorists killed along Afghanistan border
The Pakistani Army on Friday said 29 terrorists were killed during a series of operations along the Pak-Afghan border over the past month, media reports said.
“In addition to other areas along Pakistan-Afghanistan border, security forces are conducting operations in general area Sambaza in Zhob district of Balochistan, since April 21, 2024. As a result of effective engagements, 29 terrorists have been successfully neutralised by the security forces in past one month,”the military’s media wing Inter-Services Public Relations said in a statement as quoted by Dawn News.
The move was made to curb the infiltration of terrorists targeting both security forces and civilians.
The ISPR noted a surge in attempts by Afghanistan based terrorists to infiltrate the border and carry out attacks on the Pakistani side, reported Dawn News.
