Pakistan has long provided sanctuary and support for terrorism, offering protection to terrorists worldwide. However, Pakistan itself is now ensnared in the grip of terrorism. The country faces frequent terrorist attacks, resulting in significant loss of life and property. These attacks threaten not only the public but also the Pakistani military and police forces. On Tuesday, Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants attacked the Pakistani army.
On Tuesday, TTP militants attacked an army unit in the South Waziristan district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. In the ensuing clash between militants and the army, Major Moiz Abbas Shah and Lance Naik Jibranullah of the Pakistani army were killed.
Many may not be aware, but Moiz Abbas Shah was the officer who captured Indian Air Force Commander Abhinandan Varthaman in 2019. During the Balakot airstrike in 2019, Wing Commander Abhinandan was injured and captured in Pakistan. However, due to pressure from the Indian government, Pakistan was forced to release him. Abhinandan currently holds the rank of Group Captain in the Indian Air Force.
