In the ensuing operation, the troops effectively engaged the terrorists as a result of which all 10 terrorists were killed


Rawalpindi: 10 terrorists have been killed in a thwarted attack on Bannu cantonment.
Sharing details, the Inter-Service Public Relations (ISPR) in a statement said that a group of 10 terrorists attacked the cantonment yesterday in the early hours of the morning.
The attempt to enter the cantonment was effectively thwarted by the security forces personnel, which forced the terrorists to ram an explosive-laden vehicle into the perimeter wall of the cantonment.
The suicide blast led to the collapse of a portion of the wall and damaged the adjoining infrastructure, resulting in the martyrdom of eight security personnel.
In the ensuing operation, the troops effectively engaged the terrorists as a result of which all 10 terrorists were killed.
This timely and effective response by the security forces prevented a major catastrophe, saving precious innocent lives.
The ISPR said the heinous act of terrorism has been undertaken by Hafiz Gul Bahadur group, which operates from Afghanistan and has used Afghan soil to orchestrate acts of terrorism inside Pakistan in the past as well.
Pakistan has consistently raised its concerns with the Interim Afghan Government, asking them to deny the persistent use of Afghan soil by the terrorists and take effective action against such elements, stated ISPR.
It added that Pakistan Armed Forces will keep defending the motherland and its people against this menace of terrorism and will take all necessary measures as deemed appropriate against these threats emanating from Afghanistan.
