RAWALPINDI: At least 24 terrorists were killed by law enforcement agencies during the “firefights and sanitisation/clearance operations” which lasted for three days in Mach and Kolpur in Balochistan, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement on Friday.
The key terrorists — killed after they attacked the Mach and Kolpur Complexes in Balochistan on the night of January 29 and 30 — include Shehzad Baloch, Attaullah, Salah Uddin, Abdul Wadood and Zeeshan, said the military’s media wing.
“The identification process of remaining terrorists is in process, the military’s media wing stated,” the statement read.
During an intense exchange of fire with terrorists, at least four brave law enforcement agencies personnel and two civilians embraced martyrdom. The martyred LEAs personnel fought gallantly against the terrorists.
“Law enforcement agencies deputed on security offered stiff resistance and forced the attackers to repulse,” the ISPR said in its statement.
The statement further read that these terrorists were then hunted down in the ensuing sanitisation and clearance operations which have now been concluded after clearing and securing the area.
The ISPR mentioned the an effective response by LEAs is a testament to their unrelenting resolve in the fight against terrorism.
“Pakistan’s Security Forces stand shoulder to shoulder with other Law Enforcement Agencies to ensure peace and stability in the country.”
