[GEO.TV] Security personnel and terrorists engaged in a fierce gunfight on Saturday after a security vehicle was hit by an improvised explosive device (IED) explosion in the Buleda area of Balochistan’s Kech district.

The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement that a security vehicle was targeted by terrorists with an IED explosion.

The troops immediately responded and effectively engaged the terrorists’ location, as a result of which three terrorists were killed. During the operation, five soldiers embraced martyrdom.

The martyred soldiers were identified as

  • Sepoy Tipu Razzaq, 23, resident of district Sahiwal;

  • Sepoy Sunny Shaukat, 24, resident of district Karachi;

  • Sepoy Shafi Ullah, 23, resident of district Lasbela;

Sanitisation operation is being carried out to eliminate any other terrorists found in the area, the ISPR said.
