Security forces killed four terrorists belonging to the Indian proxy group, Fitna al Hindustan, during an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Balochistan's Mastung district, the military’s media wing said on Friday.
According to a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the operation was conducted on September 12, following reports of the presence of Indian-sponsored terrorists in the area.
“During the conduct of the operation, own troops effectively engaged the terrorists' location. After an intense fire exchange, four Indian-sponsored terrorists were sent to hell,” the ISPR said.
The military added that weapons, ammunition, and explosives were recovered from the terrorists, who were “actively involved in numerous terrorist activities” in the region.
A sanitisation operation is currently underway to ensure the area is cleared of any remaining threats, the ISPR said. It added the resolve of the Pakistan Armed Forces to eliminate the menace of Indian-sponsored terrorism and reaffirmed the nation’s determination to bring the perpetrators of such acts to justice.
