Three terrorists are slain in retaliation to an assault on the Pakistani airfield Miyanwali

According to reports, on Friday night, a large-scale terror strike with suicide bombers targeted the Pak Air Force installation in Mianwali, Northern Pakistan. On social media, many videos of the incident were circulated. Three assailants were slain in retaliation for the assault, according to Reuters, which cited the Pakistani military. There’s significant gunfighting going on within the base, and three assailants are still at large, it claimed.

According to reports, Tehreek-e-Jihad, a group associated with the Taliban, took credit for the assault. According to reports, the assailants were neutralized, and the clearing operation has commenced.

There have been reports that the assailants, who carried the newest weaponry, broke through the airbase’s fortified walls using a ladder. According to accounts, many aircraft that were parked within the Air Force installation were destroyed in the strike. The Pakistan Army acknowledged the assault and the amount of damage, however they referred to it as a botched terror strike.

“A failed terrorist attack occurred at Pakistan Air Force’s Mianwali Training Air Base early on November 4, 2023. Alhumdolliah, however, was stopped and thwarted by the troops’ quick action, guaranteeing the security and safety of both people and property. Three terrorists were eliminated even before they could reach the base, displaying extraordinary bravery and prompt action. The other three terrorists were encircled or isolated as a result of the forces’ prompt and efficient reaction. But three already-grounded airplanes and a gasoline bowser also sustained considerable damage during the raid. To fully clean the region, a thorough combined clearing and combing operation is under underway. The Pakistan Armed Forces spokesman said in a statement that the organization is “remaining committed to eliminating the menace of terrorism from the country at all costs.”
