Operation HADIN KAI in a statement said the troops launched well-coordinated spoiling attacks that disrupted the terrorists’ assault formations and forced them into disarray.
According to the statement, the failed attacks clearly contradict the misleading propaganda and false reports circulating on some online media platforms, saying troops remain firmly in control of the locations and continue to dominate the operational environment with high morale, decisive firepower and sustained offensive action against terrorist elements.
The statement reassured the public that the Joint Task Force remains resolute and committed to defeating all terrorist threats across the theatre of operations and restoring lasting peace to the North-East region.
