Web Desk: Security forces killed three terrorists and wounded several others during a major operation in the remote Dagnan area of Chagai district in Balochistan, according to information provided about the operation.
The forces conducted the operation in the rugged mountainous terrain after reaching suspected terrorist hideouts and caves in the area.
Security personnel engaged the terrorists in an intense exchange of fire during the operation, killing three of them and injuring several others.
The operation also targeted a number of hideouts and shelters used by the terrorists. Security forces destroyed several of these positions during the action, according to the information.
The difficult terrain and remote location presented additional challenges for the operation, but security personnel managed to reach the suspected hideouts and caves.
Importantly, security forces suffered no fatalities during the operation, according to the available information.
The action dealt a significant blow to the terrorists’ presence and operational capability in the area, while also demonstrating that difficult mountainous terrain and remote cave networks would not provide permanent safe havens.
The operation forms part of continued efforts to prevent armed groups from establishing or maintaining bases in remote parts of Balochistan.
Security forces reiterated their stated zero-tolerance policy toward terrorism, saying operations would continue against elements threatening peace, civilians and the writ of the state.
The latest action underscores the security forces’ focus on dismantling terrorist hideouts while maintaining pressure on armed groups operating in difficult-to-access areas of the province.
