Security forces killed at least 30 terrorists in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) conducted in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s (KP) South Waziristan district, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) stated on Tuesday.
The statement issued by the military’s media said, “On 17 February 2025, security forces conducted an operation in general area Sararogha of South Waziristan District on the reported presence of Khwarij.”
During the conduct of the operation, it said, the security forces effectively engaged the terrorists’ location, as a result of which, 30 were killed.
“Sanitisation operation was being conducted to eliminate any other Kharji found in the area,” the ISPR said, adding that security forces were determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism from the country.
The development comes a week after, four Pakistan Army soldiers embraced martyrdom and six terrorists were killed in a North Waziristan operation.
The ISPR, in a statement, said the security forces conducted an operation in the general area of Miran Shah, North Waziristan District, and neutralised six terrorists.
“However, during intense fire exchange, Lieutenant Muhammad Hassaan Arshaf, resident of Lahore leading his troops from the front, fought gallantly and embraced Shahadat along with his three men — Naib Subedar Muhammad Bilal, Sepoy Farhat Ullah and Sepoy Himat Khan.”
