PESHAWAR: Two soldiers were martyred during exchange of fire with terrorists in two areas of North Waziristan tri­bal district on Thursday night and Friday.

Security forces came under attacks in the volatile district when the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan has annou­nced ceasefire for an indefinite period after negotiations with a grand jirga from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in Kabul.

Inter-Services Public Relations confir­med the martyrdom of Sepoy Imran Khan, resident of Jafarabad and Sepoy Hamid Ali, resident of Sargodha.
