The operation was launched following credible information about the presence of operatives linked to the Indian-backed terrorist organisation “Fitna al-Khawarij.”

In a fierce exchange of fire, security forces effectively targeted the terrorists’ hideout, resulting in the deaths of the seven individuals.

The operation also led to the recovery of weapons, ammunition, and explosives. The deceased terrorists were reportedly involved in multiple terrorist activities in the region.

ISPR noted that a clearance operation is ongoing due to concerns about the potential presence of additional terrorists in the area.

The Pakistan Army reaffirmed its commitment to eliminating terrorism sponsored by India and ensuring that anti-state elements are brought to justice.
