MIR ALI: Security forces on Wednesday gunned down four terrorists in North Waziristan, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said.
The military's media wing said that the terrorists were killed after the troops cordoned off the area following their observation of the presence of terrorists in a compound in Mir Ali, North Waziristan.
As soon as the forces cordoned off the area, the terrorists opened fire at the forces. During intense exchange of fire, four terrorists were killed, the ISPR said.
"These terrorists were involved in kidnapping for ransom, extortion, fire raids on security forces, and IED explosions," it said.
