It said that two terrorists were killed during a fierce gunfight and that their equipment, including weapons and ammunition, was also found. According to the ISPR, the terrorists who were slain were actively participating in terrorist acts against law enforcement.
It stated that the region is being sanitised in order to get rid of any terrorists discovered there. The ISPR added, “Such sacrifices of our gallant warriors further enhance our commitment. The Pakistan Army is resolved to eliminate the threat of terrorism.
PM leads NSC.
In the meantime, the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan has re-energised its threat, prompting the high-powered National Security Committee (NSC) to assemble today to make crucial choices (TTP). General Syed Asim Munir, the head of the army, spoke with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Thursday before the meeting to discuss the state of internal security, with a focus on the TTP’s revival.
The COAS and the PM are thought to have finalised the agenda for the NSC meeting. After the army’s change of leadership, the NSC will meet for the first time at this time.
A review of state policy will be done when the civil and military leadership assesses the existing status of security.
