Army chief General Raheel Sharif arrived in Waziristan on Friday to spend Eid with soldiers deployed in the restive region.

“General Raheel will spend the religious festival with troops engaged in Operation Zarb-e-Azb in forward locations in Waziristan,” an Inter-Services Public Relations statement said.

The army chief had spent Eidul Fitr with army troops last year too by staying overnight at the Miramshah camp.

The military offensive against militants in FATA was initiated in June 2014.
