Rawalpindi: Pakistan’s security forces neutralized four Indian-sponsored terrorists during a successful intelligence-based operation on 17 September in Khuzdar District, Balochistan. The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) confirmed that the operation targeted militants affiliated with Fitna al Hindustan, an Indian proxy group.
Acting on credible intelligence, troops swiftly moved to the terrorists’ location and launched a direct assault. After an intense exchange of fire, they eliminated all four militants. ISPR reported that these individuals had actively orchestrated multiple terrorist activities aimed at destabilizing the region.
Security personnel recovered weapons, ammunition, and explosives from the site, confirming the group’s operational capabilities and intent. Furthermore, investigators are examining the seized materials to trace links to other foreign-backed militant networks.
According to ISPR, a follow-up sanitization operation is underway to eliminate any remaining threats in the area. Meanwhile, troops are conducting thorough sweeps to locate and neutralize additional elements connected to the terrorist outfit.
In addition, the military media wing reaffirmed Pakistan’s unwavering resolve to eradicate Indian-sponsored terrorists from the country. “Our forces remain vigilant and committed to defending the nation against all forms of foreign-backed militancy,” ISPR declared.
This decisive action in Khuzdar, therefore, sends a clear message to hostile entities operating under external patronage. Pakistan’s security forces continue to demonstrate their readiness and capability to counter threats against peace and stability.
In a related development, Pakistani troops killed five Indian-sponsored terrorists during a separate targeted operation in Khuzdar. Acting on actionable intelligence received on the night of 14/15 September, forces intercepted the militants and engaged them in a fierce firefight. As a result, they successfully eliminated all five individuals linked to Fitna al Hindustan. This back-to-back success underscores the effectiveness of Pakistan’s counterterrorism strategy and its commitment to securing the region.
The nation, united in its determination, continues to support efforts to bring the perpetrators of terrorism to justice. As ISPR reiterated, operations will persist until the menace of Indian-sponsored terrorists is completely wiped out.
