RAWALPINDI/ISLAMABAD: Security forces on Thursday killed 10 Khwarij, who attacked a post in Jandola in the area of South Waziristan and Tank District.

On March 13, Khwarij attempted to attack a security forces’ post in general area Jandola, South Waziristan and Tank districts, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) in a statement said.

The prime minister said the government would continue to foil designs of the terrorists who were trying to create unrest in the country.
