Six Pakistan Army Soldiers, Including Captain, Killed in Clash Near Afghan Border
At least six Pakistan Army personnel, including a captain, were killed in a clash with militants near the Afghan border in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Kurram district, the military said on Wednesday.
According to a statement from the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), Pakistan’s military media wing, the troops were engaged in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in the Dogar area when the fighting broke out. At least seven militants were also killed during the exchange.
The ISPR said the operation targeted members of Fitna al-Khawarij, a term used by the military to describe militants belonging to the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
Kurram district, which shares a border with Afghanistan, has seen a surge in militant activity in recent months, with frequent cross-border attacks targeting Pakistani security forces.
