[Dawn] Eight suspected forces of Evil including three Tehrik-e-Taliban
 ...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
Pakistain (TTP) commanders were killed in two intelligence-based operations (IBOs) conducted by security forces in the North Wazoo tribal district, the military's media wing said on Saturday.
The separate IBOs were carried out on terrorist hideouts in Boya and Dosali areas of North Waziristan, according to an Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) statement.
Besides the eight Death Eaters, the three terrorist commanders killed during the exchange of fire were Abdul Aneer alias Adil (TTP Toofan group), Junaid alias Jamid (TTP Tariq group) and Khaliq Shadeen alias Rehan (TTP Sadiq Noor group), the ISPR said.
"These forces of Evil remained involved in terrorist activities against security forces, law enforcement agencies and locals of the area since 2009 including IED (improvised bomb) attacks, firing, murder, kidnapping for ransom and extortion," the blurb added.
It said the slain gunnies were also involved in recruiting forces of Evil in the area.
Security forces recovered a "huge cache of arms" from the hideouts.
Last month, four women aid workers were bumped off in the Mirali area of North Waziristan, as a fresh wave of holy warrior violence rattled the region.
The tribal areas along the Afghan border remain notorious for the availability of cheap guns, narcotics and smuggled goods.
Attacks have decreased in recent years following a series of military offensives against homegrown and foreign Death Eaters.
In 2014, the army launched a massive operation to wipe out Death Eater bases in North Waziristan aimed at ending a near decade-long insurgency that cost thousands of lives.
But Death Eater groups are still able to carry out sporadic, isolated assaults.
A recent surge in attacks targeting security forces along the Afghan border has sparked fears that these groups may be regrouping.
