Pakistan Frontier Corps Kills 8 TTP Militants Attempting Border Infiltration Overnight

Pakistan's Frontier Corps killed 8 TTP militants and critically wounded 4 others during a foiled border infiltration attempt overnight on April 5-6. The militants attempted to cross the Afghanistan-Pakistan border fence in North Waziristan. No Pakistani forces were reported killed. The incident was the latest in a series of attempted cross-border infiltrations since Pakistan's military operations intensified. Pakistan cited the continued infiltration attempts as justification for its ongoing Operation Ghazab-il-Haq and as evidence of the need to maintain the cordon along the Durand Line frontier.
