20 Indian-Sponsored Khwarij Killed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Operations

Pakistan’s Security Forces conducted successful counter-terrorism operations against Indian-sponsored militants in North Waziristan and Dara Adam Khel districts.

According to military sources, twenty khwarij belonging to the group Fitna al Khwarij were killed in two separate engagements over the past two days.

Security Forces launched an intelligence-based operation after receiving reports about the presence of khwarij in the Shawal area of North Waziristan. During the operation, troops effectively engaged the militants’ positions, killing eight Indian-backed khwarij.

In a separate operation in Dara Adam Khel district, Security Forces conducted another intelligence-based mission. After a brief but intense exchange of fire, twelve more khwarij were neutralized.

Sanitization operations are ongoing in the region to eliminate any remaining militants. Officials reaffirmed that Pakistan’s Counter-Terrorism campaign, under the vision “Azm-e-Istehkam” as approved by the Federal Apex Committee on the National Action Plan, will continue at full speed.

The Security Forces and Law Enforcement Agencies of Pakistan are committed to eradicating foreign-sponsored terrorism and ensuring peace and stability in the country.
