Shafaqna Pakistan: Six more terrorists were killed during a security operation in Balochistan, bringing the total number of militants eliminated in Operation Shaban to 85, security sources said on Tuesday.
The sources added that since July 5, a total of 123 militants had been killed in Operation Shaban and other intelligence-based operations conducted across the province. They said the campaign would continue until all terrorists were eliminated.
Operation Shaban, launched after the attack on the Mangi Dam police station in Ziarat, is being carried out jointly by the Pakistan Army, Frontier Corps and Balochistan Police. A day earlier, security forces had killed eight more terrorists in separate operations across the province.
A large cache of weapons and ammunition was also recovered from the killed militants, including M4 rifles, submachine guns, rocket launchers, mobile phones and other equipment, they added. Forty-two people, including security personnel and civilians, were martyred in three recent terrorist attacks in Balochistan.
