Terrorist ring leader among two militants killed in KP IBOs
2024-03-08
[GEO.TV] Two bad boyz were potted in separate operations conducted by security forces in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa on Wednesday night, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said.

In a brief statement released on Thursday, the ISPR said that a terrorist ring leader named Shamrooz alias Sheenay was bumped off in an intense exchange of fire between the Lions of Islam and security forces during an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Khyber district.

Meanwhile,
...back at the buffalo wallow, Standing Buffalo watched the circling Commanches and asked himself What would Geronimo do?...
another terrorist named Mansoor was also neutralised in a separate operation in the Dera Ismail Khan
... the Pearl of Pashtunistan ...
district, the military's media wing stated.

It said that the slain Lions of Islam remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities against security forces as well as extortion and murders of innocent civilians, and were highly wanted by law enforcement agencies.

The statement said that weapons, ammunition, and explosives were also recovered from the slain terrorists.

ISPR further stated that sanitisation operations are being conducted to eliminate any other Lions of Islam found in the area.

The area locals appreciated the operations conducted by the forces and expressed their full support to the military in eliminating the menace of terrorism.

Pakistain witnessed a spike in terrorist attacks in Balochistan

and KP provinces during the past few months which also marred the pre-election phase in some provincial pockets.

In response, the security forces also intensified actions against the terrorism-hit areas and achieved success by restoring peace in the affected parts, especially in areas bordering Afghanistan.

Last week, three Lions of Islam were bumped off and four others injured during an exchange of fire with Pak security forces in an IBO in KP's Karak district.
