HAYATABAD (DNA) – Five terrorists were Tuesday killed in an operation at a house in Hayatabad – a suburb of Peshawar – and one Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) official namely Qamar Alam embraced martyrdom.

The operation against the terrorists started on Monday night when the police were informed about the presence of militants in Sector 10 of Hayatabad’s Phase 7, and cross firing started between both parties.

The basement and ground floor of the house have been cleared by the authorities; however, resistance is still being faced from the upper story.
