According to security sources, the militants killed in the operation were allegedly linked to a range of violent activities in Kharan and Lajay, including suicide attacks, extortion, kidnapping and targeted killings.

The operation also focused on disrupting the group’s infrastructure. Security personnel recovered modern weapons and a significant quantity of ammunition from the targeted locations, along with military equipment, two vehicles and a motorcycle.

Several militant hideouts were also destroyed during the operation, according to the sources.

The security sources said operations would continue on the basis of intelligence information to prevent further militant attacks and strengthen security in affected areas.
