At least 22 terrorists affiliated with the outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) were killed during an intelligence-led operation conducted by Pakistani security forces in Dera Ismail Khan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. The military’s media wing reported that the operation targeted a hideout after intelligence indicated the presence of militants known as “Fitna Al-Khawarij.” Following intense exchanges of fire, security personnel successfully neutralized the terrorists, and combing operations are underway to ensure the area is free from any remaining threats. This operation underscores the ongoing challenges Pakistan faces in combating terrorism and highlights the regional implications for stability and security.
