Security forces successfully defused improvised explosive devices (IEDs) planted near Khuzina on the Quetta-Karachi highway in Kalat district, preventing a potential tragedy on one of the region’s busiest routes.
According to officials, the planted explosives were part of a deliberate attempt by foreign-backed armed elements affiliated with the banned group Fitna al-Hindustan to destabilise the area and target civilian and military movement along this vital corridor.
Prompt intelligence and swift response by the security forces ensured the safe removal and disposal of the IEDs without causing any harm or disruption to the public.
Authorities have intensified security measures in the region, with ongoing operations aimed at dismantling networks linked to external forces fueling unrest. Investigations are underway to track down those involved in this plot.
Local administration has urged the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to maintain peace and security on the highway.
