The incident occurred on Sunday in the rugged Tirah Valley area of the Khyber tribal district, where security forces were conducting a search operation. Sources reported intermittent exchanges of fire throughout the day.

The injured troops received immediate medical assistance at the site before being transferred to a nearby military hospital for further treatment.

The Pakistani military has not yet issued an official statement regarding the incident. The Tirah Valley, located along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, has long been a focal point for counterinsurgency efforts due to its strategic location and history of militant activity. (ILKHA)
