According to ISPR, a North Waziristan operation was carried out after forces detected the movement of suspected militants. The action took place close to the Pak Afghan border, where security concerns have been increasing.

Officials said the forces acted quickly and effectively, engaging the militants before they could carry out any major activity. During the operation, eight members of Fitna al Khawarij were killed. A large quantity of weapons and ammunition was also recovered from the site.
