6 terrorists killed in intelligence-based operation in Balochistan's Panjgur: ISPR
Security forces killed six terrorists in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Balochistan’s Panjgur district, the military’s media affairs wing said on Friday.
In a statement, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said that on the night of June 3/4, security forces conducted an IBO on the reported presence of terrorists belonging to Indian proxy, Fitna al Hindustan.
The state has designated Balochistan-based terrorist groups as Fitna al Hindustan to highlight India’s alleged role in terrorism and destabilisation across Pakistan.
“During the conduct of [the] operation, own forces effectively engaged multiple terrorist locations, and after intense fire exchanges, six Indian sponsored terrorists were sent to hell,” it said.
“Weapons, ammunition, improvised explosive devices and [a] vehicle have also been recovered from the killed Indian-sponsored terrorists, who remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities in the area,” it said.
“Sanitisation operations are being conducted to eliminate any other Indian-sponsored terrorist found in the area,” it added.
It added that a counterterrorism campaign by security forces and law enforcement agencies would continue at full pace to wipe out the menace of foreign-sponsored and supported terrorism from the country.
Earlier this week, security forces killed 17 terrorists during IBOs in different districts of Balochistan following the suicide attack on a train in Quetta. The IBOs were conducted in the districts of Mastung, Nushki, Khuzdar and Kech.
