“In a determined effort to eliminate terrorist threats and dismantle the khwarij networks, Security Forces are conducting a series of intelligence based operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.

Following intense and fierce exchanges of fire, thirty five khwarij belonging to Indian-sponsored Fitna-al-Khwarij have been neutralised in Mir Ali and eight were killed in Orakzai, thereby inflicting a significant blow to the khwarij networks operating in these areas.
The military’s media wing said in continuation of counter terrorism campaign, from 3 November onwards security forces are conducting comprehensive intelligence based area sanitisation operation in Kurram area of District Quetta against Indian backed “Fitna Al Khawarij & Fitna Al Hindustan” in Balochistan.
During the conduct of these intelligence based operations, multiple terrorist hideouts were effectively engaged and after multiple engagements, thirty one Indian sponsored khwarij were killed.
Huge cache of weapons, ammunition and explosives including homemade explosives and improvised explosives devices were also recovered during sanitization, thwarting Khwarij nefarious designs to use these materials in terrorists activities.
Sanitization operations continue to eliminate holed up khwarij from these areas, as relentless Counter Terrorism campaign under vision “Azm e Istehkam” (as approved by Federal Apex Committee on National Action Plan) by Security Forces and Law Enforcement Agencies of Pakistan will continue at full pace to wipe out the menace of foreign sponsored and supported terrorism from the country.
