Security forces in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province conducted intelligence-based operations over 36 hours in Bannu and North Waziristan districts, killing over 60 militants, including four key commanders. Operations involved drone and quadcopter surveillance targeting militants hiding in various locations, including an Islamic seminary in Bannu.

The actions followed heightened security efforts after two militants were killed near Adnan Cricket Stadium in Bannu on August 11. Search and clearance operations are ongoing.
