Security forces have launched a decisive and intelligence-driven operation in the Mastung district of Balochistan, targeting terrorist elements and their hideouts in the sensitive hilly regions of Kurdgap, Kali Abad, and Gurgina.
The operation was conducted as part of ongoing efforts to dismantle terrorist infrastructure responsible for violence, intimidation, and disruption of public life in the region. According to security officials, the targeted locations had been used by armed elements involved in activities including attacks on civilians, illegal road blockades, and extortion.
In a coordinated action involving both aerial and ground components, helicopters and ground troops were deployed to ensure precision engagement and operational effectiveness. Security forces successfully targeted and dismantled multiple suspected hideouts used for planning and facilitating violent activities.
The operation was carried out with a focus on minimizing risk to civilian populations while maximizing operational impact against hostile elements. Authorities confirmed that significant terrorist infrastructure in the area was neutralized, disrupting their ability to operate and coordinate activities in the region.
Officials stated that such operations form part of a broader strategy to restore long-term peace and stability in Balochistan, ensure the safety of local communities, and protect ongoing and future development initiatives from disruption by violent groups.
Security sources further emphasized that terrorist networks attempting to destabilize the region through coercion and violence will continue to face sustained and decisive action. The state remains fully committed to strengthening governance, restoring the writ of law, and creating a secure environment conducive to socio-economic development.
The people of Balochistan, particularly the youth, are encouraged to remain vigilant against misguidance and reject any attempts to exploit them for violent or unlawful activities.
