Three terrorists killed in intelligence-based operation in North Waziristan

Rawalpindi: At least three terrorists were killed in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) on Friday in the North Waziristan district, according to a statement from the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).

The operation, which took place between the night of February 6 and 7, targeted a terrorist hideout in the Datta Khel area. The military's media wing said the terrorists attempted to escape while wearing women's clothing (burqa) to avoid detection.

The ISPR statement confirmed that security forces engaged the terrorists and successfully killed all three. The military also recovered weapons and ammunition from the terrorists, who had been involved in several attacks in the region.

The operation is part of ongoing efforts to eliminate terrorism from the area, with additional searches taking place to ensure no other terrorists remain. The Pakistani army has vowed to continue its fight against terrorism and ensure the safety of its citizens.
