ISLAMABAD: Lt Gen Faiz Hameed took over command of XI Corps based in Peshawar from Lt Gen Nauman Mahmood on Monday, said a statement from the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
Prime Minister Imran Khan on October 26 notified the appointment of Lt Gen Nadeem Anjum as the new chief of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency.
A notification issued by the Khan’s office read: “The Prime Minister has seen and approved the appointment of Lt Gen Nadeem Ahmed Anjum, HI (M) as Director-General Inter-Services Intelligence, with effect from November 20, 2021.”
