RAWALPINDI: Security forces have killed 11 Khwarij in four separate engagements in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on March 26 and 27, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) on Thursday said.
According to the statement, an intelligence-based operation (IBO) was conducted by the security forces in general area Mir Ali, North Waziristan District. During the operation, troops effectively engaged the Khwarij location and resultantly, five Khwarij were sent to hell.
In a second operation in the same general area, three more Khwarij were successfully neutralised by the troops. While in another encounter that took place in general area Miran Shah, North Waziristan District, troops effectively neutralised two Khwarij. In the fourth operation in general area Daraban, Dera Ismail Khan District, one Kharji was sent to hell.
Weapons and ammunition were also recovered from the killed Khwarij, who remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities.
Sensitisation operations are being conducted to eliminate any other Kharji found in the area as Pakistan security forces are determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism from the country, the ISPR statement said.
