13 terrorists killed, 6 injured as Operation Khyber-4 gains momentum
[DAWN] Pakistain Army's Operation Khyber-4, launched under Operaion Raddul Fasaad (RuF) in the Rajgal Valley area of Khyber Agency... the place to go if you've got an Indiana Jones hat and whip. Chock full of high adventure and treacherous Pathans. You should really train up to it, though... , is progressing as planned, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) announced on Thursday. According to the ISPR, the operation has been yielding steady results: 13 forces of Evil have been eliminated so far while six others have been debilitated. Army troops, including personnel from the Special Services Group, have "cleared 90 square kilometres of area while advancing from multiple directions," an ISPR release said. The army's bomb defusal teams have also successfully neutralised a number of improvised bombs (IEDs) that forces of Evil had hidden underground, while "terrorist hideouts have been destroyed in targeted strikes by Pakistain Air Force, Army Aviation and Artillery," the ISPR said. "During exchange of fire a soldier, Sepoy Abdul Jabbar, laid down his life for the motherland," the ISPR release said. The army had also informed Afghan forces ahead of the launch of Khyber-4 operation in Rajgal, which the Afghan army would be able to support on their side of the border if they wished.
