A major setback for the Dawood Bettani faction of Fitna al-Khawarij (FAK) in Tank District: six key operatives eliminated during a security forces operation in Latti village.

Neutralized terrorists:
• Ts Abu Bakr
• Muzammil
• Suhail
• Moaz
• Toofan
• Basir Padake

ISPR said that weapons and ammunition were also recovered from the slain terrorists.

According to the military’s media wing, the eliminated terrorists “remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities against security forces, law enforcement agencies and target killing of innocent civilians”.

“Sanitisation operations are being conducted to eliminate any other Indian-sponsored kharji found in the area,” the statement said.

ISPR added that a counter terrorism campaign under the vision of Azm-i-Istehkam would continue at full pace to wipe out the menace of “foreign-sponsored and supported terrorism from the country”.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif paid tribute to the security forces for the operations. According to a statement posted by state broadcaster PTV on X, he said that security forces were making big gains against terrorism under Azm-i-Istehkam.

“The nation stands with security forces against terrorism. We are determined to root out terrorism from the country,” he said.
