Rawalpindi, 8 October 2025:
On night 7/8 October 2025, Security Forces conducted an intelligence based operation in Orakzai District, on reported presence of Khwarij belonging to Indian Proxy, Fitna al Khwarij.
During the conduct of operation, nineteen Indian sponsored khwarij were sent to hell due to effective engagement by own troops.
However, during the intense fire exchange, Lieutenant Colonel Junaid Tariq (age: 39 years, resident of District Rawalpindi), leading his troops from the front along with second in command Major Tayyab Rahat (age: 33 years, resident of District Rawalpindi) having fought gallantly, paid the ultimate sacrifice and embraced shahadat along with his nine men.
