Foreign Secretary Muhammad Syrus Sajjad Qazi called-in the Chargé d’Affaires (Cd’A) of Afghan Interim Government (AIG) to deliver Pakistan’s strong demarche in the context of Tuesday’s deadly terrorist attack on Pakistan’s security forces’ post in Daraban, Dera Ismail Khan. The attack, whose responsibility has been claimed by Tehreek-e-Jihad Pakistan, a terrorist group affiliated with the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), resulted in multiple causalities, including shahadat of twenty-three security personnel.

According to the statement issued by Foreign Office Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch, the Cd’A of AIG was asked to immediately convey to the Afghan Interim Government to:

o Fully investigate and take stern action against perpetrators of the recent attack;

o Publicly condemn the terrorist incident at the highest level;

o Take immediate verifiable actions against all terrorist groups (including their leadership) and their sanctuaries;

o Apprehend and handover the perpetrators of the attack and the TTP leadership in Afghanistan to the Government of Pakistan; and

o Take all necessary measures to deny the persistent use of Afghan soil for terrorism against Pakistan.

The statement said that Tuesday’s terrorist attack is yet another reminder of the terrorist threat to peace and stability in the region. We must act resolutely with all our collective might to defeat this menace. On its part, Pakistan remains steadfast in its commitment to combat terrorism.

According to the statement issued by ISPR, an intelligence based operation was conducted in general area Darazinda on reported presence of terrorists. During the conduct of operation, terrorists’ hideout was busted and 17 terrorists were killed.

In another intelligence-based operation in general area Kulachi, own troops effectively engaged terrorists’ location as a result of which four terrorists were killed. However, after intense exchange of fire, two brave sons of soil, having fought gallantly, embraced shahadat.

The killed terrorists were actively involved in numerous terrorist activities against security forces as well as killing of innocent civilians. Weapons, ammunition and explosives were also recovered during the operations.

In early hours on Tuesday, a group of six terrorists attacked a security forces’ post in general area Daraban.

The attempt to enter the post was effectively thwarted which forced the terrorists to ram an explosive laden vehicle into the post, followed by a suicide bombing attack.

The resulting blasts led to the collapse of the building, causing multiple casualties, 23 brave soldiers embraced shahadat, while all six terrorists were effectively engaged and were killed.

Sanitization operations are being conducted to eliminate any other terrorist present in the area, as security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism from the country and such sacrifices of our brave soldiers further strengthens our resolve.
