Director General Inter-Services Public Relations (DG ISPR) Lieutenant General Ahmad Sharif Chaudhry is addressing a news in Rawalpindi.

The presser is being held against the backdrop of spike terrorist attacks, which have resulted in martyrdom of dozens of civilians and members of security forces and law enforcement agencies in recent weeks.

The DG ISPR, during his briefing at the General Headquarters, said that the security forces and law enforcement agencies (LEAs) carried out 32,173 IBOs against terrorists and their facilitators across the country in the first eight months of the ongoing year — of which 4,021 were carried out in the last one month.

Meanwhile, at least 90 Khawarij were sent to hell in the past 30 days in these IBOs, the military’s spokesperson added.

Underscoring the ongoing efforts against terrorism, Lt Gen Chaudhry said that around 130 IBOs are carried out on a daily basis by the Pakistan Army, intelligence agencies, police and LEAs.
