FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Local officials told Press TV that Pakistani security forces were on a routine patrol on the outskirts of the Dir district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, located 200 kilometers northwest of the country’s capital Islamabad, late on Thursday when the attackers struck them armed with assault rifles, killing the two on the spot.
The assailants later fled the scene and their whereabouts remain unknown.
Law enforcement agents cordoned off the area after the incident and launched a search operation to arrest the perpetrators.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the act of terror.
Militants, known as Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP), and their associated groups have carried out numerous attacks on the security forces and civilians and managed to spread their influence in various regions of the country, despite frequent offensives against them by the Pakistani government.
Over 35,000 Pakistanis have lost their lives in bombings and other militant attacks since 2001 when Pakistan entered an alliance with the US in Washington’s so-called war on terror, according to local media.
Since late 2009, there has been a surge in militant attacks in Pakistan.
Thousands more have been displaced by the wave of violence and militancy sweeping the country.
