Four India-sponsored Fitna al-Khawarij terrorists, including a suicide bomber, were killed after security forces foiled an attempted attack on security forces’ checkpost in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s South Waziristan district, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Saturday.

According to the military’s media wing, the terrorists sought to breach the checkpost security; however, their nefarious designs were checked and decisively foiled by the vigilant and resolute response of security forces.

“The attackers’ explosive-laden vehicle was successfully engaged and destroyed outside the perimeters of post killing one suicide bomber in it, which failed to cause any damage,” read the communique.

Security personnel engaged the remaining intruders, forcing three terrorists in a nearby compound, who were later neutralised in a deliberate clearance operation with precision, the ISPR said.
