Security forces conducted a successful intelligence-based operation in the district of Dera Ismail Khan, resulting in the elimination of a key Khawarij operative while another was critically injured. According to official sources, the operation was launched following credible intelligence about the presence of Khawarij elements in the area. As the forces approached the suspected hideout, they came under hostile fire, prompting a swift and decisive response. In the ensuing exchange, one member of the Khawarij was sent to hell, while another was wounded and taken into custody.
The swift action of the security forces prevented a potential act of sabotage and disrupted the network of the Khawarij in the region. Arms and ammunition were also recovered from the site of the encounter. Officials confirmed that the injured Khawarij operative is being interrogated, and further operations are expected in light of the information obtained.
The security forces reiterated their resolve to eliminate every trace of Khawarij ideology and its violent proponents, assuring the public that such elements will find no refuge on Pakistani soil. The operation marks another step in the ongoing struggle to safeguard peace and stability in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and across the country.
