Security forces killed 12 terrorists in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Balochistan’s Kalat district, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Friday.
The IBO was conducted on Wednesday on the reported presence of terrorists belonging to the Indian proxy
Fitna al Hindustan, the military’s media wing said in a press release.
The state has
designated Balochistan-based terrorist groups as
Fitna al Hindustan to
highlight India’s alleged role in terrorism and destabilisation across Pakistan.
“During the conduct of the operation, the terrorists’ hideout was identified, monitored and busted through prompt surgical action,” it said, adding that “all 12 Indian-sponsored terrorists” were killed.
A cache of ammunitions and improvised explosive devices were also destroyed on-site, it added.
It said that sanitisation operations were being conducted to eliminate any other Indian-sponsored terrorist found in the area.
It added that a relentless counter-terrorism campaign under “
Azm-i-Istehkam” by security forces and law enforcement agencies would “continue at full pace to wipe out menace of foreign-sponsored and supported terrorism from the country”.
In separate statements carried by state-run
APP, the president and the prime minister expressed their resolve to completely eradicate the menace of terrorism from the country.
