Security forces foil terrorist attack on FC Headquarters

Security forces thwarted attack on the Frontier Corps (FC) headquarters in Mohmand district, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, the military’s media wing said on Saturday.

According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the assault was carried out by a group of four suicide bombers affiliated with the extremist group Fitna al-Khawarij.

“The attempt to enter the camp was effectively thwarted by our forces, and all four suicide bombers were killed before they could inflict any damage,” ISPR stated.

Following the thwarted attack, a sanitisation operation is underway to ensure no other terrorists remain in the area.

The ISPR affirmed the forces’ continued vigilance and commitment to eliminating terrorism from the country.

“Our security forces stand valiant, demonstrating sheer determination and resolve in their mission,” the military’s media wing added.

In a separate incident, five terrorists were killed in an exchange of fire with security forces at the Surkhab refugee camp in Pishin district.
