Security forces have eliminated twenty-two Khwarij, affiliated with the Indian-sponsored Fitna-al-Khwarij, in North Waziristan over the past twenty-four hours. According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), a sanitization operation is currently underway in the general area of Shewa within the district. Weapons and ammunition have also been recovered from the slain militants. The operation is ongoing, and the area has been effectively cordoned off by security forces.
Details of the Operation
The ISPR confirmed that the sanitization operation aims to clear the region of any remaining threats. The killed Khwarij were part of a network that has been destabilizing the area. The recovery of weapons and ammunition underscores the intensity of the engagement.
Security Forces' Commitment
This operation highlights the ongoing efforts of Pakistan's security forces to combat terrorism and ensure peace in the region. The ISPR reiterated that such operations will continue until the area is completely cleared of militant elements.
