Security forces thwart two infiltration attempts on Pak-Afghan border
Last year in December, the security forces of Pakistan repelled two cross-border attacks by Afghan Taliban and Khwarij in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Kurram and North Waziristan districts.
Around 25 militants attempted to cross into Pakistan from Afghanistan’s side, utilizing Afghan Taliban border posts. However, Pakistani security forces swiftly responded, thwarting the infiltration attempts, the sources added.
The militants, backed by the Afghan Taliban, opened heavy fire on Pakistani posts but were met with a robust and decisive response from Pakistan’s security forces.
Additionally, the Taliban abandoned six posts and fled following the effective retaliatory action and artillery fire from the Pakistani side.
