Security Forces continue to conduct intelligence-driven counter-terrorism operations across Balochistan under Operation Radd-ul-Fitna III, maintaining sustained pressure against terrorist networks and their operational infrastructure. According to security sources, a successful operation was conducted against Fitna al-Hindustan in the Siya Pasht and Killi Gashtari areas of Mastung. During the operation, Security Forces eliminated five terrorists associated with the terrorist network.
The operation was undertaken as part of ongoing efforts to identify and dismantle terrorist hideouts, disrupt hostile networks and prevent terrorist elements from using the area to facilitate attacks against security personnel and civilians.
Security sources said that the operation was launched following intelligence regarding the presence and movement of terrorist elements in the area. During the operation, Security Forces effectively engaged the identified terrorists, resulting in the elimination of five militants.
A substantial quantity of weapons and ammunition was also recovered from the possession of the eliminated terrorists. The recovery is expected to further assist security agencies in tracing the operational capabilities and networks associated with the group.
Following the successful action, Security Forces have launched an extensive clearance and search operation in the surrounding areas to locate any remaining terrorist elements and prevent the group from exploiting the terrain for concealment or future activity. Security personnel are maintaining heightened vigilance throughout the area, while intelligence and surveillance efforts continue to identify potential threats.
The ongoing clearance operation reflects a broader strategy of denying terrorist groups the ability to establish safe havens or maintain freedom of movement in sensitive areas of Balochistan.
