[Attaullah Tarar @TararAttaullah]

In the aftermath of recent multiple terrorist incidents inside Pakistan against the innocent people of Khyber Pakthunkhwa, Balochistan and Pakistan Rangers (Sindh) Camp, Karachi, a well planned intelligence based ground operation was carried out by security forces along Pakistan-Afghan border followed by calibrated Strikes in the border region against the hideouts and safe havens of terrorists belonging to Jamaat ul Ahrar and Fitna al khwarij, killing twenty nine khwarij.

On 28 June 2026, security forces conducted an intelligence based ground operation against a group of terrorists near Pakistan-Afghanistan border in Bajaur District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. As a result of precise and skillful engagement, high value Khwarji Commander Khan Farosh aka Zabal along with 3 terrorists belonging to Indian proxy Jamaat ul Ahrar were sent to hell while several others got injured.

In continuation of Operation Ghazb Lil Haq, based on credible intelligence, precise targeting of terrorist camps and hideouts belonging to Jamaat ul Ahrar and Fitna al khwarij have also been carried out on night 28/29 June, in border region of Pakistan-Afghanistan border. Three targets in Paktia, Paktika and Kunar were destroyed during precision strikes killing twenty five terrorists. Large quantities of weapons and ammunition stored at these Marakiz and hideouts were also destroyed.

Pakistan has always strived for maintaining peace and stability in the region, but at the same time shall not compromise on the safety and security of our citizens, which remains our top priority.

Our relentless Counter Terrorism campaign under vision “Azm e Istehkam” (as approved by Federal Apex Committee on National Action Plan) by Security Forces and Law Enforcement Agencies of Pakistan will continue at full pace to wipe out the menace of foreign sponsored and supported terrorism from the country.

Speaking to Pakistan TV, Author and Public speaker from US, Laurie Watkins, who is in Islamabad to attend the international seminar titled “Indus Waters Treaty: An Instrument of Peace and Regional Stability” being held on June 30, says, “Just like any international treaty, similar to the United States having treaties, you can't just rip them up, even if you want to. Same goes for the Indus Waters Treaty. This is historical, this is in legislation, this is international law, and one party cannot just decide that they want to negate or dismantle.”

Afghan Taliban senior commanders are struggling to persuade dissident Tajik Taliban commander Juma Khan Fateh, but reports indicate Juma has refused to back down. The crisis appears far from over in Badkhshan province in the northeast of Afghanistan.

The regional experts believe that it could become a catalyst for broader armed resistance against Taliban and can also potentially trigger further infighting within the Taliban.
