Security Forces have killed eight militants, including a suicide bomber, during intelligence-based operations in Balochistan, while two military personnel embraced martyrdom in a separate attack involving armed quadcopters.
According to an official statement, multiple intelligence-based operations have been underway since November 13, 2026, around Kolpur, Kardagap and Nushki.
The operations include area domination and patrolling along the Quetta–Taftan National Highway (N-40) to ensure the safety of local traffic and support ongoing security efforts.
Eight Militants Killed in Kolpur Operation
During the night of November 13 and 14, Security Forces neutralised eight militants described in the statement as Indian-sponsored terrorists belonging to Fitna al Hindustan (FAH).
The operation took place in the Kolpur area and also resulted in the recovery of a large cache of weapons and ammunition. A suicide bomber was among those killed.
Two Security Personnel Martyred in Drone Attack
On November 14, FAH militants targeted military vehicles on patrol using armed quadcopters.
Major Omer Minhas Nasir, a resident of Chakwal District, and Havildar Muhammad Adnan Khan, from Kotli Sattian, embraced martyrdom in the attack.
The statement said the incident had not weakened the resolve of Security Forces, adding that intelligence-based and clearance operations would continue until the threat was completely eliminated.
Security Operations to Continue
According to the statement, FAH is using drones and other technical means, including improvised explosive devices (IEDs), to target civilians and Security Forces.
It further alleged that the group receives financial and technical support from India and other hostile intelligence agencies.
Security Forces said they were aware of the evolving threat and would continue operations to prevent militants from operating in the area.
The statement added that the counter-terrorism campaign under the vision of Azm-e-Istehkam, approved by the Federal Apex Committee on the National Action Plan, would continue at full pace.
It reaffirmed the commitment of Security Forces and law enforcement agencies to eliminate what it described as foreign-sponsored terrorism from the country.
