A day earlier, security forces conducted two separate operations in Dera Ismail Khan, killing seven terrorists. Last week, a similar intelligence-based operation in South Waziristan led to the elimination of 30 militants.

The recent rise in terrorist activities has been linked to the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP)'s violation of its ceasefire agreement with the government in 2022. A report by the Pakistan Institute for Peace Studies (PIPS), published last month, highlighted that terrorist attacks in 2024 have surged to levels last seen in 2014, with over 95% of attacks recorded in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
