Pakistan: 10 terrorists die in Balocistan
Islamabad: At least 10 terrorists died during an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Pakistan's Hoshab region, media reports said on Wednesday.
The IBO was conducted to clear a hideout of terrorists linked to firing incidents targeting security forces and civilians, along with planting improvised explosive devices on the Gwadar-Hoshab (M-8) road, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) statement was quoted as saying by Dawn News.
"As security forces were in the process of establishing blocking positions after identification of 12-14 terrorists' location, terrorists opened fire onto the security forces," the ISPR said in a statement.
"During the ensuing heavy exchange of fire, 10 terrorists have been killed while one terrorist has been apprehended in injured condition. Two terrorists managed to escape," the ISPR said.
"Security forces, in step with the nation, remain determined to thwart attempts at sabotaging peace, stability, and progress of Balochistan," the press release added.
