The forces are conducting targeted raids on terrorist infrastructure and eliminated many dozens of terrorist operatives over the last week. The terrorists were killed by sniper fire, in close-quarters combat, by tank fire and with aerial fire support.

The cameras contained footage that shows terrorists arming and rigging a building prior to the entry of the forces, the forces entering the building, disarming of the explosives and locating the weapons.
