"But do not forget that there is no victory for cowards. Never think that those terrorists are powerful, those coward terrorists are bound to fail and perish. Our recent anti-terror operations are not temporary, our fight against terror will continue until the last terrorist leaves our territory," he added."We will never lose our determination in our fight against terror. We will allow no slackness or pause in our fight. Those who do not favor our campaign against terror cannot deter us from our path," he said.
