Weapons and ammunition were also recovered from the killed terrorists, who "remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities against the security forces and law enforcement agencies, as well as the killing of innocent civilians", the ISPR statement noted.

A sanitisation operation was being conducted to eliminate any other terrorist found in the area, ISPR said.

It affirmed that the "relentless counterterrorism campaign under vision ’Azm-e- Istehkam’ (as approved by Federal Apex Committee on National Action Plan) by security forces and law enforcement agencies of Pakistain will continue at full pace to wipe out the menace of foreign-sponsored and supported terrorism from the country".

"These sacrifices of our brave soldiers further reinforce our unwavering commitment to safeguarding our nation at all costs," the military’s media wing stated.
