[DAWN] A lieutenant, two sepoys and a lance havaldar were martyred while seven bad boyz were potted in an operation on a holy warrior hideout near Datta Khel, North Wazoo

Those martyred include 26-year-old Lt Agha Muqadas Ali Khan, 36-year-old Lance Havaldar Qamar Nadeem, 24-year-old Sepoy Muhammad Qasim and 23-year-old Sepoy Touseef.

According to the military's media wing, security forces had conducted an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Mama Ziarat after receiving confirmed reports of a holy warrior hideout in the area. An exchange of fire took place between the troops, who had cordoned the area, and the terrorists, who were trying to escape.

The armed forces recovered a "large cache" of weapons, improvised bombs and ammunition from the hideout after it was cleared, the statement added.
