In a third encounter, security forces foiled an attempted attack on a security forces’ post in Thall District. During the intense exchange of fire, three terrorists were killed. Tragically, six soldiers of the Pakistan Army embraced martyrdom, laying down their lives while fighting gallantly to protect the nation.
Following these successful operations, sanitization efforts are underway to ensure the area is cleared of any remaining terrorist elements.
The Pakistan Armed Forces remain steadfast in their commitment to eradicating terrorism and securing peace. The sacrifices of the brave soldiers who embraced martyrdom further strengthen the resolve to eliminate this menace.
