In a display of remarkable vigilance and operational superiority, security forces decisively eliminated four Khawarij linked to the proscribed Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) after they launched a failed fire raid and drone strike on a military post in Ladha, South Waziristan. According to security sources, the Khawarij initiated a brazen two-pronged assault involving a coordinated physical attack and a quadcopter strike, attempting to breach the security perimeter of the post late Sunday night. The attempt was met with a forceful and immediate retaliatory response that left four of the assailants dead on the spot, effectively neutralizing the threat before any damage could be inflicted.
Security personnel remained completely unharmed during the exchange, underscoring the operational readiness and discipline of the deployed troops. “The response was swift and decisive. Our forces not only thwarted the attack but inflicted heavy losses on the enemy,” an official stated.
The remaining Khawarij were seen fleeing under intense retaliatory fire, abandoning their positions in disarray after facing what officials described as a “crushing blow.” Clearance operations are currently underway to locate and apprehend those who managed to escape.
This latest encounter reflects the unwavering resolve of Pakistan’s security forces to confront and eliminate the menace of Khawarij wherever they emerge, reaffirming their commitment to peace and stability in the tribal districts and beyond.
