PESHAWAR: A Pakistani soldier embraced martyrdom while four terrorists were killed during an operation in North Waziristan on Sunday morning.
According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), security forces conducted an intelligence-based hideout (IBO) on a terrorist hideout near Kaitu River, north-west of Spinwam, North Wazirstan.
As soon as troops cordoned the area, terrorists opened fire to flee from the area leading to an intense exchange of gunfire. However, all terrorists were killed by security forces, said the military’s press wing.
Sepoy Sadam, 27, who was a resident of Karak in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (K-P), lost his life while bravely fighting for the country. Meanwhile, two other Pakistani soldiers sustained injuries.
Earlier on Thursday, two soldiers of the Pakistan Army were martyred after terrorists opened fire on a security check post near Pash Ziarat in South Waziristan. They were idenfitied as Havaldar Matloob Alam, aged 32, and Seopy Suleman Shaukat, aged 25.
Last month, at least six soldiers were martyred in an improvised explosive device (IED) attack on a security forces convoy in North Waziristan.
