In a bold move against the ongoing wave of terrorism in Lakki Marwat, local tribes have taken up arms to defend their lands. The remote region of Takhti Khel has witnessed escalating tensions between militants and local tribes over the past week. The Takhti Khel tribal militia had issued an ultimatum to militants, ordering them to leave the area.
Earlier this week, militants kidnapped two young men from the Takhti Khel tribe, prompting the tribe to form armed patrols in their territorial boundaries. Today, a confrontation erupted when the Takhti Khel militia encountered militants during one of their patrols.

In the ensuing firefight, militant commander Fateh was killed, and three of his associates were injured. The injured militants were reportedly taken away by their fellow fighters. One person from the Takhti Khel tribe was also wounded and has been shifted to Bannu for treatment.
