In a decisive move, Pakistan has conducted precision strikes targeting the outlawed Hafiz Gul Bahadur Group’s terrorist camps situated across the border in Afghanistan’s Paktika province, adjacent to North and South Waziristan.
The action comes in response to a series of cross-border terrorist attacks originating from Afghan soil over the past 48 hours. Pakistani security forces successfully thwarted multiple infiltration attempts, eliminating over 100 terrorists in retaliatory operations during this period.
Earlier today, militants from the same group carried out a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device (VBIED) attack in North Waziristan, resulting in the Shahadat of one brave Pakistani soldier, while several others sustained injuries.
Following this, the Pakistan Armed Forces launched targeted strikes focused on key leadership and operational camps of the banned Gul Bahadur network. Based on verified intelligence, these strikes neutralized 60 to 70 terrorists, including several top commanders of the group.
The operation sends a clear message: Pakistan will not tolerate terrorism launched from across the border, and any aggression will be met with decisive and forceful response.
