Peshawar:

At least 47 terrorists have been killed by security forces in Balochistan province near the Afghanistan border in the last two days, Pakistan military's media wing said on Saturday.

The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) in a statement said the security forces conducted a sanitization operation and killed 33 terrorists in Sambaza in Zhob district during the intervening night of August 7-8.

Another 14 terrorists were neutralised in another operation in the surrounding areas of Sambaza along the Afghanistan border on the intervening night of August 8-9, the ISPR said.

Weapons, ammunition and explosives were also recovered from the dead terrorists, it added.

Pakistan has seen a sharp rise in terrorist attacks, especially in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan provinces, since the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) called off its ceasefire with the government in November 2022.
