The attack comes a day after six terrorists killed and two army soldiers martyred in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in the Ladha area of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa’s South Waziristan tribal district.
The raid triggered a heavy exchange of fire, ISPR said in a statement. “Nanakar, a high-value target responsible for attacks on local residents and tribal elders, was among those died in today’s raid.”
