33 terrorists infiltrating through Pakistan-Afghanistan border killed: ISPR

Rawalpindi: Security forces killed 33 Indian-sponsored terrorists who were trying to infiltrate through the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, the military’s media wing said on Friday.

According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the movement of the militants was detected in the general area of Sambaza in Balochistan’s Zhob district on the night of August 7-8. Security forces swiftly responded, triggering a fierce gun battle that lasted several hours.

A large cache of weapons, ammunition and explosives was recovered from killed terrorists, the ISPR said.

The ISPR also confirmed that a sanitisation operation is underway to eliminate any remaining militants in the area.

Pakistan’s security forces remain committed to securing the country’s borders and eliminating the threat of terrorism, the ISPR said.
