The armed forces carried out successful actions against the Afghan Taliban and Fitna al-Khawarij along the Pak-Afghan border in North and South Waziristan on Saturday, destroying several of their posts and forcing the enemy to abandon their positions and flee.

Security sources said that several Afghan Taliban terrorists were killed, while the remaining retreated and fled.

“Afghan Taliban forces have suffered heavy losses due to the effective and powerful response by the Pakistan Army,” they added.

They said Operation Ghazab Lil Haq was still ongoing and would continue until its objectives were achieved.

Operation Ghazab Lil Haq was launched late on February 26 after renewed clashes along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, when Afghan Taliban forces fired on multiple locations, prompting swift military retaliation.
