Jets wipe out nine militants in Kurram

PESHAWAR – Nine terrorists were killed and many others got injured in the ongoing military operation in Kurram Agency where PAF jets targeted militants’ hideouts on Monday.
According to reports, most of the militants fled to adjacent Kurram Agency due to ongoing offensive Rah-e-Nijat in South Waziristan Agency (SWA). The PAF jets, on intelligence information, destroyed the suspected hideouts of the militants in Oarlagai, Khaparak and Speer Koat areas of Central Kurram.
For the last three years, the militants have blocked main roads from Gulpar and Khapar to Peshawar for all sorts of traffic and people of Upper Kurram are compelled to use dangerous and long route to reach Peshawar. The security forces have recently launched a massive operation in central Kurram Agency.
