Infiltration bid of terrorists to enter in general area Batwar, Bajaur District from Afghanistan foiled, three terrorists killed: ISPR

RAWALPINDI, Dec 31 (SABAH): On 31 December 2023, movement of three terrorists, who were trying to infiltrate Pakistan- Afghanistan border, was picked up by security forces in general area Batwar, Bajaur District.

According to the statement issued by ISPR, after fire exchange, all three terrorists were sent to hell. Weapons, ammunition and explosives were also recovered from the killed terrorists.

In another incident on night 30/31 December, terrorists from inside Afghanistan, opened fire on a Pakistani Border Post in general area Spinwam, North Waziristan District. Own troops responded in a befitting manner causing considerable losses to the terrorists. However, during the exchange of fire, Naik Abdul Rauf (age: 31 years, resident of: District Rahim Yar Khan), having fought gallantly, embraced Shahadat.

Pakistan has consistently been asking 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 terrorists for perpetuating acts of terrorism against Pakistan.
