Army chief in Sri Lanka on two-day visit

Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Bajwa Tuesday reached Sri Lanka on a two-day visit where he met the country's military leadership, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement.

The Army chief highlighted Pakistan's achievements under Raddul Fasaad and said the country's armed forces have eliminated most of the militants.

"Having cleared troubled areas from terrorists of all hues and colours, Pakistan is now going after their disorganised residual presence under Operation Raddul Fasaad," he said.

"Pakistan and Sri Lanka are probably the only two countries which understand what it takes to defeat the menace of terrorism."
