Security forces killed six terrorists in two separate operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Sunday, the military’s media wing said.
According to a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), an intelligence-based operation was conducted by security forces in the general area of Dosali, North Waziristan District.

The troops engaged the militants’ location effectively, killing one terrorist named Ahmed Shah during the operation.
In another incident, security forces picked up the movement of a group of militants who were trying to infiltrate through the Pakistan-Afghanistan border in the general area of Khamrang, South Waziristan District, and effectively engaged and thwarted their attempts to infiltrate.
As a result, five militants were sent to hell, while three militants were injured, the ISPR said.
The military’s media wing said that Pakistan has consistently been asking the Interim Afghan government to ensure effective border management on their side of the border.
“Interim Afghan government is expected to fulfill its obligations and deny the use of Afghan soil by Khwarij for perpetrating acts of terrorism against Pakistan,” the ISPR said.
