PESHAWAR: Terrorists attempted to attack Pakistan Naval Base, PNS Siddique in Turbat which was thwarted due to the swift and effective response by the troops ensuring the safety and security of personnel and assets.ISPR said.
The Inter-Services Public Relations statement on March 26 stated that the security forces in the vicinity were immediately mobilized to support the naval troops. A synergetic and effective response by the armed forces enabled the killing of all four terrorists in the ensuing joint clearance operation.
However, during an intense fire exchange, Sepoy Noman Fareed (age 24 years, resident of Muzaffargarh) of Frontier Corps Balochistan, having fought gallantly, embraced shahadat.
A sanitization operation is being conducted to eliminate any other terrorists found in the area.
