Security forces killed two Indian-backed terrorists and arrested two others during an intelligence-based operation in Balochistan's Duki district, the military's media wing said on Sunday.
The operation was launched on reports of the presence of members of Fitna al Hindustan, described by the military as an Indian proxy group operating in the region.
'Security forces effectively engaged the Indian-sponsored terrorists' location,' said the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) in a statement. 'After an intense exchange of fire, two Indian-sponsored terrorists were sent to hell, while two were apprehended.'
Security forces also recovered weapons, ammunition and explosives from the terrorists, who were involved in a series of terrorist activities in the area. A sanitisation operation is currently underway to eliminate any remaining terrorists.

'The security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of Indian-sponsored terrorism from the country,' the ISPR said. It added that the operation reaffirmed the nation's 'unwavering resolve to bring the perpetrators of terrorism to justice.'
A day earlier, 14 terrorists were also killed during an exchange of fire following a suicide attack on a military convoy in North Waziristan, which martyred 13 servicemen and injured three civilians — two children and a woman.
"A vehicle-borne suicide bomber attempted to detonate himself near the security forces' convoy but was intercepted by the leading group, foiling his nefarious design," the military's media wing, the ISPR, said in a statement.
"However, in their desperation, an explosive-laden vehicle was rammed into one of the vehicles of the leading group by the Indian-sponsored Kharjis," it added. "As a result, 13 brave sons of the soil embraced shahadat."
