RAWALPINDI: Security forces have killed 30 Khawarij in three separate engagements in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on January 24 and 25, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) in a statement said.
On reported presence of Khwarij, an IBO was conducted by security forces in District Lakki Marwat. During the conduct of operation, own troops effectively engaged the Khwarij location and resultantly, 18 Khwarij were sent to hell, while six Khwarij got injured.
Another IBO was conducted in District Karak. In ensuing fire exchange, eight Khwarij were effectively neutralised by the security forces. In a third encounter that took place in general area Bagh, Khyber District, troops successfully neutralised four Khwarij including Kharji ring leaders Azizur Rehman alias Qari Ismail and Kharji Mukhlis, while two Khwarij got injured. Weapons and ammunition were also recovered from the killed Khwarij, who remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities in the area against the security forces as well as killing of innocent civilians.
Sanitization operations are being conducted to eliminate any other Kharji found in the area as the security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism from the country, the ISPR said.
