Eight terrorists killed in Kalat IBOs: ISPR

Security forces have killed eight terrorists during two successive intelligence-based operations (IBOs) in Balochistan’s Kalat district, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Tuesday. According to the military’s media wing, the first operation was launched on July 19, targeting a location suspected of harbouring terrorists linked to the group. “During the operation, four terrorists were successfully neutralized,” the ISPR stated. Acting on intelligence gathered during the mission, a follow-up sanitization operation was carried out on July 21 in the surrounding areas. “Four more terrorists of Fitna al Hindustan were hunted down and sent to hell,” the ISPR added. Security personnel also discovered and dismantled a terrorist hideout during the course of the operations. A large cache of weapons, ammunition, and explosives was recovered from the site.

In his statement, the President commended the forces for “bringing anti-state elements to justice with courage and professional excellence.” “Terrorists seek to sabotage peace and stability — something that will not be allowed under any circumstances. The nation is united, and terrorism will be defeated at all costs,” he stated, adding that operations would continue until terrorism is completely eradicated from Pakistan.
