Operation Khyber-IV: Troops clear two more terrorist strongholds in Rajgal
Operation Khyber-4 was launched by the army in mid-July.
“A full division of the army, including artillery, aviation and backed by Pakistan Air Force, is taking part in the Rajgal operation,” ISPR DG Major Gen Asif Ghafoor told journalists while announcing the operation.
The operation in Rajgal Valley, he said, was critical since it could provide a key route to Da’ish terrorists operating from Afghanistan to establish their foothold in Pakistan.
