On November 1, security forces in Balochistan conducted two intelligence-based operations against Indian-sponsored terrorists. The operations took place in Kachhi and Kharan districts. In the first operation, security forces located a terrorist hideout in the Sanni area of Kachhi district and thwarted the terrorists' plan to establish a roadblock, resulting in the deaths of 10 Indian-sponsored terrorists.
The forces also recovered weapons and ammunition from the deceased. In the second operation, a separate raid on a terrorist hideout in Kharan district led to an intense exchange of fire, ultimately killing seven Indian-sponsored Khawarij. During the operation, Sepoy Hikmat Ullah, a 25-year-old resident of Karak district, lost his life while bravely fighting the terrorists.
President Asif Ali Zardari praised the security forces for their timely action and sacrifice in foiling the terrorists' plans, mourning the loss of Sepoy Hikmat Ullah and expressing condolences to his family. The president reaffirmed that the counterterrorism campaign, under the vision of "Azm-e-Istehkam," approved by the Federal Apex Committee on the National Action Plan, would continue unabated to eliminate foreign-sponsored terrorism from Pakistan.
