The first IBO was conducted in the tribal district's general area Dosalli in which troops effectively engaged the terrorists' location and resultantly, six bad boyz were potted and two others were apprehended. Subsequently, three murderous Moslems were neutralised by security forces after an intense fire exchange in the Esham area. Two murderous Moslems were also maimed in the gunbattle, the military's media wing said. It added that weapons and ammunition were also recovered from killed terrorists, who remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities against the security forces as well as murder of innocent civilians. "Sanitisation operations are being conducted to eliminate any other kharji [terrorists] found in the area, as security forces of Pakistain are determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism from the country," it concluded.

Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
