Security forces carried out a successful intelligence-based operation (IBO) in the Zehri area along the Sohind-Pandran Road in Balochistan after receiving credible intelligence regarding the presence of terrorists linked to Fitna-al-Hindustan.
According to security sources, the operation was launched on confirmed reports about the movement and hideouts of Fitna-al-Hindustan terrorists operating in the area. During the exchange of fire, security personnel effectively engaged the terrorists, resulting in the killing of one Fitna-al-Hindustan terrorist, while four others were apprehended alive.
The detained suspects are being interrogated to determine their network, facilitators, and possible involvement in terrorist activities across the region. Security officials stated that weapons and other materials of interest were also recovered during the operation, while further assessment and investigation remain underway.
Officials described the operation as part of the continuing counterterrorism campaign aimed at dismantling Fitna-al-Hindustan networks and ensuring lasting peace and stability in Balochistan. Security forces carried out the operation with professionalism and operational precision despite the challenging terrain of the area.
Security sources further confirmed that search and clearance operations are still ongoing in and around the Sohind-Pandran Road to eliminate any remaining terrorist presence. Additional security measures have also been put in place to monitor movement in adjoining areas and prevent any possible escape of suspects.
The successful operation reflects the unwavering resolve of Pakistan’s security forces to eradicate Fitna-al-Hindustan elements and safeguard national security. Authorities reiterated that operations against anti-state actors will continue with full determination until peace is completely restored.
