Security forces have killed nine terrorists, including two “high-value targets” in two separate operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), the Inter-Services Public Relations said on Monday.
The eliminated militants were actively involved in numerous terrorist activities in the area and were wanted by law enforcement agencies. Weapons, ammunition and explosives were recovered from them after the operation.
Sanitisation operations are being conducted to eliminate any terrorist found in the area as the security forces are determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism from the country, the military’s media wing concluded.
Pakistan has witnessed an increase in terrorist attacks since the interim government of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan was established in 2021.
Pakistan has time and again raised its concerns with the interim Taliban government over the use of Afghan soil by various militant organisations including the TTP to launch attacks inside Pakistan.
