As a result of the attack, Sepoy Amil Shah embraced martyrdom.
“Terrorist activities in North Waziristan have increased lately. During the last one month, five soldiers have been martyred and 31 injured due to terrorist actions,” added ISPR.
The military’s media wing further said that the arrest of facilitators linked to these terrorist activities led to the Kharqamar post incident on 25 May.
