RAWALPINDI: Security forces killed seven Khwarij while five others were injured in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in the Kurram district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Thursday.

During the operation, troops effectively engaged the Khwarij, as a result of which seven Khwarij were sent to hell, while five of them were injured.

The Khwarij’s hideout was busted and a large quantity of weapons, ammunition and explosives was recovered.

The killed Khwarij remained actively involved in terrorist activities against the security forces as well as innocent civilians. A sanitization operation is being conducted to eliminate any other Khawriji in the area as the security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism in the country, says a statement by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
