A Pakistan Army officer was martyred and five “Indian-sponsored” terrorists were killed during an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Khyber-Paktunkhwa’s Razmak area on Saturday, the military’s media wing said.<\/p>\n
According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), security forces carried out the operation in North Waziristan district after receiving intelligence reports about the presence of terrorists, whom the military described as belonging to the banned Fitna Al Khawarij, <\/em>referring to the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan.<\/p>\n “During the conduct of operation, due to effective engagement by own troops, five Indian-sponsored khwarij <\/em>were sent to hell.<\/p>\n “However, during the intense fire exchange, Major Hafiz Ihsan Elahi (age: 34 years, resident of District Mianwali), a brave officer who was leading his troops from the front, having fought gallantly, paid the ultimate sacrifice and embraced martyrdom,” the ISPR said.<\/p>\n Read: <\/strong>32 terrorists eliminated in
