In another IBO conducted in South Waziristan District, two Khwarij were successfully neutralized by the security forces.
“However, during intense fire exchange, one brave son of soil, Naik Mujahid Khan (age: 40 years, resident of District Kohat), having fought gallantly, paid the ultimate sacrifice and embraced shahadat,” the statement said.
Two more clashes in Khyber and Bannu districts resulted in the killing of three additional terrorists.
