The Frontier Corps (FC) on Friday conducted a sanitisation operation in Balochistan's Sibbi area, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a press release.

The operation was conducted to cleanse the mountainous region of the presence of terrorists.

According to the ISPR, two terrorists who were involved in threatening locals, were killed in an exchange of fire during the operation.

In a different sanitisation operation, carried out in Gandimgozi Kaur, FC troops killed two terrorists in a hide out and recovered arms and ammunition from their den, the ISPR said.

The operations come days after a suicide attack on Quetta's Bethel Memorial Methodist Church in which nine people were killed and 30 others injured.

The army, along with other security agencies has been conducting operations all over Balochistan in order to curb the terrorist presence in the region.
