In a second operation conducted in the same area, three more militants were successfully neutralised by troops, it added.
In another encounter that took place in general area Miran Shah of North Waziristan district, troops effectively neutralised two terrorists, the ISPR said.

Weapons and ammunition were also recovered from the killed terrorists, who remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities.
The military’s media wing said sanitisation operations were launched to eliminate any other terrorist found in the area “as the security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism from the country”.
Last week, at least 16 terrorists were killed by security forces during an attempt to cross into Pakistan from Afghanistan in general area Ghulam Khan Kallay of North Waziristan district, the military’s media wing had said.
