Owing to the presence of Afghan insurgents within the college, security forces are prioritising the safety of cadets while pursuing the terrorists with utmost care.
The operation is reportedly targeting three insurgents inside the college, all believed to be Afghan nationals who have been receiving instructions via telephone from Afghanistan. Security sources indicate that the insurgents are hiding in a building far from the cadets’ accommodation.
On November 10, Afghan insurgents rammed a vehicle laden with explosives into the college’s main gate. The blast destroyed the gate and caused damage to nearby buildings. Pakistani Army personnel responded immediately and decisively, killing two insurgents at the scene.
