Security forces killed three terrorists in two separate intelligence based operations in different areas of the North Waziristan District, the military’s media wing said on Saturday.

“Weapons, ammunition and IEDs were also recovered from the terrorists,” the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement.

The ISPR said that a high value terrorist commander was apprehended in injured condition, along with three others.

“All the terrorists, in two separate operations, were affiliated with Hafiz Gul Bahadur Group,” it said.

The ISPR said that the suspected terrorists remained actively involved in terrorist activities against security forces, extortion for ransom and killing of innocent citizens.
