At least 12 terrorists belonging to the outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) were gunned down Tuesday night by Pakistan security forces in Lakki Marwat area of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region, media reports said.
The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), in a statement, said that the movement and activities of the terrorists were being monitored by the “intelligence tentacles” for the last one week, reports Geo News.
“Terrorists were lured in by providing a vehicle for escape that was intercepted and neutralised,” said the ISPR and added, that weapons, ammunition and Afghan currency were also recovered from the terrorists.
Security personnel later carried out a clearance operation in the area.
