14 terrorists neutralised in Khuzdar security operation: ISPR

Khuzdar: Security forces conducted a successful operation in the Zahri area of Khuzdar district, Balochistan, during which 14 terrorists affiliated with Fitna-e-Hindustan were killed and more than 20 militants were wounded, the military's media wing said on Saturday.

According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the forces foiled attempts by terrorists to harass peaceful residents of Zahri.

The operation resulted in the destruction of multiple terrorist hideouts. Security officials confirmed that several strongholds of the militants were successfully demolished during the operation.

Local residents of Zahri praised the operation and expressed their happiness over the elimination of terrorist bases, chanting slogans in support of the Pakistan Army.

Security sources stated that the forces remain vigilant and fully prepared to eliminate Fitna-e-Hindustan terrorists to ensure the safety of the public.

It is worth noting that on October 1, during an intelligence-based operation in Sherani district of Balochistan, security forces killed seven Indian-sponsored Fitna-e-Khawarij terrorists in an exchange of fire.

According to a statement issued by ISPR, a large cache of weapons, ammunition, and explosives was recovered from the slain terrorists. Sanitization operations continue in the area due to the possible presence of other militants.
