Any attempt to undermine country's security to meet heavy resistance: PM
Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar says the valiant Pakistan Air Force has once again proven its mettle by thwarting a cowardly terrorist attack in Mianwali.
Islamabad: Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar ul Haq Kakar on Saturday said that any attempt to undermine the country's security will meet with unwavering resistance.
In a tweet on Saturday, he said the valiant Pakistan Air Force has once again proven its mettle by thwarting a cowardly terrorist attack in Mianwali.
The Prime Minister said the nation stands with the armed forces and salutes their courage and resolve.
Earlier in the day, nine terrorists were killed during combing and clearance operation at PAF Training Airbase Mianwali.
According to the ISPR, the successful operation was launched by security forces to eliminate any potential threat in the surrounding area following the cowardly and failed terrorist attack on the base this morning.
No functional operational assets of the PAF were harmed, with only minimal damage sustained by the three already phased out non-operational aircraft during the attack.
The ISPR, in its statement, stated that the prompt and professional conclusion of the operation serves as a stark reminder to all enemies of peace that Pakistan's Armed Forces remain vigilant and are fully capable of defending the homeland from any threat.
