A major counterterrorism operation in Pakistan's northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province has led to the death of at least eight terrorists linked to the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), police report.

The effort took place on Sunday in the border area between Kohat and Karak districts, following intelligence reports of militant activity.

Supervised directly by Regional Police Officer Abbas Majeed Marwat, the operation has uncovered and destroyed several terrorist hideouts, with the mission still ongoing despite attempted resistance from the militants.
