RAWALPINDI:Six terrorists were killed while five servicemen suffered injuries during skirmishes along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Sunday. 

The army’s media wing said terrorists from across the border fired on Pakistan’s border posts and border fencing teams in Bajaur in Khyber Pakhtunkha and Qamar Din Qarez in Balochistan.

“Taking advantage of ungoverned spaces and facilitation inside Afghanistan, terrorists resorted to such attacks to prevent fencing and construction of border posts,” the military’s media wing said.

“Security Forces responded effectively and repulsed physical attack. 6 terrorists killed and many injured. 4 soldiers of FC and one soldier of PAF (Deployed at observation post) got injured.”

The ISPR further said: “To consolidate the gains of successful kinetic operations against terrorism fencing of Pak-Afghan border and construction of border forts will continue irrespective of the challenges posed by inimical forces.”
