In the past four days, more than 71 terrorists were killed in Balochistan, according to the military's Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) on Sunday. The operation, launched on September 21 following credible intelligence, targeted Ziarat and surrounding areas. ISPR stated that the Pakistan Army's relentless efforts had resulted in the deaths of over 71 terrorists, significantly impacting Indian-backed Afghan proxies operating in the region.
The military disclosed that intelligence agencies had identified multiple hideouts of Indian-sponsored terrorist groups, referred to as Fitna al Khawarij and Fitna al Hindustan, in Shaban District, Quetta. During the operation in Shaban, 33 Indian-sponsored terrorists were killed, along with weapons, ammunition, and explosives.
The intensified operation over the past three days claimed the lives of an additional 23 terrorists. ISPR emphasized that security forces had cleared a vast area, relieving local communities of the threat posed by these terrorist groups. They affirmed that the clearance operation would continue until the complete neutralization of the threat.
In a separate intelligence-based operation on September 25 in Noshki, 11 Indian-sponsored terrorists were killed following an engagement with a terrorist hideout. Additionally, six "Fitna al Hindustan" terrorists were neutralized in Mand, with a large quantity of weapons and ammunition recovered. The statement highlighted the persistent involvement of the Afghan Taliban regime, backed and sponsored by India, in terrorism activities within Pakistan, which continues to cause loss of lives and threaten peace and stability.
ISPR reaffirmed that the counter-terrorism campaign, under the vision of "Azm-i-Istehkam," approved by the Federal Apex Committee on the National Action Plan, would continue with full resolve. They reaffirmed the commitment of security forces and law enforcement agencies to eliminate foreign-sponsored and supported terrorism from the country.
