Seven terrorists supported by India were killed in two separate operations in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP), while four security staff, including a young officer, kissed martyrdom in a fire exchange, the media wing reported on Thursday.
According to inter-service public relations (ISPR), on the night of May 28 to 29, the “Khwarij” sponsored by India tried to attack a security forces control position in the Shawal general area in the northern Waziristan district.
