Two soldiers martyred in North Waziristan terror attack on security convoy
2023-11-23
[GEO.TV] Two soldiers were martyred when an improvised explosive device (IED) exploded near a convoy of security forces in North Waziristan district’s Razmak area, the military’s media wing said Wednesday.

In a statement, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said that the soldiers who lost their lives were identified as Lance Naik Ehsan Badshah, 33, resident of Karak district, and Lance Naik Sajid Hussain, 30, resident of Kurram district.

The military’s media wing added that a sanitisation operation was being carried out “to eliminate any terrorists present in the area”.

It noted that Pakistan’s security forces are determined to eliminate the menace of terrorism and such sacrifices of “our brave soldiers further strengthen our resolve”.

The development comes a day after the security forces gunned down three terrorists in two intelligence-based operations (IBOs) in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's Dera Ismail Khan and South Waziristan districts.

A 26-year-old soldier — Sepoy Shahzeb, belonging to Rawalpindi — had also embraced martyrdom after an IED exploded in the general area of Gharyoum, North Waziristan.
