Dera Ismail Khan (Khyber Mail): In a joint search-and-strike operation, the Pakistan Army and District Police neutralized four militants affiliated with a banned terrorist group in the Kulachi and Daraban areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The operation, aimed at eliminating militants and their facilitators, remains ongoing as security forces work to ensure complete area clearance.
The offensive involved coordinated efforts from the Pakistan Army, Elite Force, Al-Barq Force, and other police units. Snap security checks were also conducted along the Zhob-Dera road to prevent militant movement. Security personnel searched multiple homes and suspicious locations, successfully clearing most of the area.
However, with concerns that additional militants may still be present, security forces continue combing operations to fully secure the region. Authorities reaffirmed their commitment to eradicating terrorism and ensuring lasting peace in the area.
