Islamabad: In a series of targeted actions in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistani security forces have successfully neutralized five terrorists in three separate operations. These efforts are part of ongoing operations to maintain peace and counter-terrorism activities in the region.

According to Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, the operations included a significant engagement in Mohmand District where three terrorists were killed and their hideout was destroyed. The operation also led to the recovery of a substantial cache of arms, ammunition, and explosives. Tragically, during this intense exchange of fire, Police Constable Abrar Hussain of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police was killed.

In Dera Ismail Khan District, another operation was conducted where terrorists were engaged, resulting in the death of Kharji Sifatullah, a prominent terrorist involved in numerous activities including the facilitation of a suicide bombing attack in Daraban on December 12, 2023. Three other terrorists were injured in this operation. Sifatullah was a high-priority target for law enforcement due to his extensive involvement in terrorist activities.

The third operation took place in North Waziristan District, where another terrorist was killed by security forces. These concerted efforts by the Pakistani security forces underscore their commitment to ensuring the safety and security of the area, working in close collaboration with other law enforcement agencies.

Pakistan’s security forces continue to stand vigilant against threats, demonstrating their dedication to the peace and stability of the country through these decisive actions.
