ISLAMABAD (Kashmir English): In response to a series of recent terrorist attacks in Pakistan, security forces carried out ‘precise and calibrated’ strikes on terrorist hideouts and safe havens along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border areas, eliminating 26 militants affiliated with Fitna Al Khwarij, Information Minister Atta Tarar said.

In a post on X, Tarar stated that the operation followed several major terrorist incidents, including the attack on a Federal Constabulary post in Musa Dara on June 9, a vehicle-borne suicide attack on a military post in North Waziristan on June 2, and a suicide attack on a police station in Bannu on May 9.

He added that the “strikes were carried out on hideouts and safe havens of masterminds and planners belonging to Fitna Al Khwarij, killing twenty six Indian sponsored khwarijs.”

The minister claimed that, based on credible intelligence, selective targeting of camps and hideouts was carried out with precision and accuracy.

“Four targets were completely destroyed, including a training centre, a hideout & an ammunition cache, and Marakiz belonging to Fitna Al Khwarij Commander Aleem Khan Khushali and Commander Akhtar Muhammad Jani Khel,” he maintained.

Pakistan has always strived to maintain peace and stability in the region, but at the same time, the safety and security of our citizens remains our top priority. Our relentless Counter Terrorism campaign under vision “Azm e Istehkam” (as approved by Federal Apex Committee on National Action Plan) by Security Forces and Law Enforcement Agencies of Pakistan will continue at full pace to wipe out the menace of foreign-sponsored and supported terrorism from the country,” the federal minister concluded.
