"The new camp is about 4-6km away from the BHT location attacked earlier on 20 August 2016 by NAF Mi-17 helicopter within the same vicinity in a similar night operation that led to the death of about 300 insurgents,” he had said.

“The post-strike battle damage assessment (BDA) mission had revealed that surviving BHTs converged at the new location.”
