NORTH WAZIRISTAN: Four terrorists were killed after they attacked the battalion headquarters of security forces in Boya area on Friday, security sources said.
The sources identified the terrorists as those belonging to Fitna-al-Khawarij, a term that the state has designated for the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan.
One of the “suicide bombers” among the terrorists rammed an explosives-laden vehicle into a wall of the Boya fort on Friday morning, causing a blast, the sources said.
The powerful blast was heard as far as Miranshah city, located nearly 25 kilometres away, local sources reported.
Around four to five terrorists attempted to enter the fort after the blast, but the attempt was foiled due to timely action by security personnel, security sources said, adding that three terrorists were killed on the spot as a result of the action.
The sources said there were reports that security personnel had encircled one of the remaining terrorists, and an operation was currently under way.
According to them, only the outer wall of the battalion headquarters was partially damaged in the attack.
Initially, police had reported that assailants managed to enter the premises and opened fire. In the ensuing exchange of fire, four militants were killed while four security personnel sustained injuries, police earlier said.
Soon after the explosion, security forces cordoned off the area and launched a clearance operation.
A heavy contingent of police and security personnel reached the site, while special teams of the bomb disposal squad were dispatched to examine the scene.
Rescue 1122 and medical teams were also engaged in relief and rescue operations. Authorities said evidence was being collected from the site as investigations were under way
Following the attack, security across the district was placed on high alert, and traffic on a key highway was temporarily suspended as a precautionary measure.
The incident comes two months after four terrorists were killed after security forces foiled a suicide attack on a military camp in North Waziristan’s Mir Ali.
