Thirty five Khwarij eliminated in two separate operations in KP

RAWALPINDI: At least 35 Khwarij have been eliminated by the security forces in two different operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, according to Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR).

“On the reported presence of Khwarij, an intelligence-based operation was conducted by the Security Forces in Bajaur District.

During the conduct of the operation, own troops effectively engaged the khwarij location, and after an intense fire exchange, twenty two Indian sponsored khwarij were sent to hell,” the press release said.

The release further added that “In another encounter that took place in South Waziristan District, thirteen more Khwarij were neutralized by the security forces.

However, during intense fire exchange, twelve brave sons of soil, having fought gallantly, paid the ultimate sacrifice and embraced Shahadat.”

“Weapons and ammunition were also recovered from Indian sponsored killed Khwarij, who remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities in these areas,” according to a release from the military media wing.

The ISPR press release also noted that “Intelligence reports have unequivocally confirmed the physical involvement of Afghan Nationals in these heinous acts. Besides, the use of Afghan soil against Pakistan by Fitna al Khawarij terrorists continues to remain a grave point of concern.

Pakistan expects the Interim Afghan Government to uphold its responsibilities and deny the use of its soil for terrorist activities against Pakistan.”

“Sanitization operations are being conducted to eliminate any other Indian sponsored Kharji found in the area, as the security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of Indian Sponsored Terrorism from the country, and such sacrifices of our brave men further strengthen our resolve,” the statement concluded.
