Pakistani troops off to Liberia
A batch of 270 Pakistani troops on Saturday left for Liberia on the United Nations (UN) mission to restore peace in the war-ravaged country.
Bidding farewell to the troops at the Allama Iqbal International Airport, Brigadier Tauqir Ahmad said Pakistani troops had always earned laurels for the country under various UN peacekeeping missions, says a press release. They are looked as a role model by other military components, Tauqir said.
He urged the troops to perform their duties diligently.
