As many as twenty-five terrorists were killed and several others were injured in an aerial offensive by the security forces at Terah valley.

According to the ISPR, nine hideouts of terrorists including a big cache of arms and ammunition were also destroyed in the offensive.

Pressure has built on the military to act after the attack by at least 10 militants in Karachi, which left a nascent peace process in tatters and raised questions about how they were able to penetrate the airport in Pakistan s economic hub.

The air strikes are the latest in a succession of such attacks carried out by the Pakistani military in the tribal belt this year after talks with the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) broke down.

The last strikes were carried out in North Waziristan in late May, killing at least 75 people and stoking the migration of some 58,000 people away from the district in fear of a fuller ground-offensive that has been anticipated for years.
