At least 30 terrorists killed as security forces foil Afghan border infiltration bid

Security forces killed at least 30 Khawariji terrorists who were attempting to infiltrate from Afghanistan during two nights of operations in North Waziristan, the military’s media wing, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), said in a press release on Friday..

The movement of a large group of terrorists, identified as Khawarij belonging to the Indian proxy group Fitna al Khawarij, was detected on the nights of July 1–2 and 2–3 in the Hassan Khel area near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, the statement said.

Security forces engaged the group and “thwarted the Indian-sponsored Khawariji terrorists' attempt to infiltrate,” the ISPR said in a statement.

The military said a large quantity of weapons, ammunition, and explosives was recovered from the site.

According to ISPR, the terrorists killed were involved in multiple terrorist attacks, including those targeting civilians and law enforcement personnel.

The ISPR called on the Interim Afghan Government to prevent the use of Afghan soil by “foreign proxies” for orchestrating terrorist activities against Pakistan.

The military reiterated that Pakistan’s security forces remain “resolute and unwavering” in their commitment to defend the nation’s frontiers and eliminate Indian-sponsored terrorism from the country.
