أظهر تقرير معهد باكستان لدراسات النزاعات والأمن (PICSS) أن البلاد شهدت خلال يونيو 2026 انخفاضاً في مستوى العنف ضد الدولة رغم وقوع هجمات بارزة. ووفقاً للتقرير، قُتل ما لا يقل عن 262 شخصاً وأصيب 134 آخرون خلال الشهر، حيث شكّل المسلحون النسبة الأكبر من الضحايا إذ لقي 184 منهم مصرعهم في عمليات نفذتها قوات الأمن الباكستانية. كما فقد 52 مدنياً و26 من عناصر الأمن حياتهم في هذه الفترة، ما يعكس استمرار التحديات الأمنية رغم التراجع النسبي في حجم الهجمات.

جون میں دہشتگردی کے واقعات میں کمی، مگر ہائی پروفائل حملوں کا سلسلہ جاری

پاکستان انسٹی ٹیوٹ فار کنفلکٹ اینڈ سیکیورٹی اسٹڈیز (PICSS) کی تازہ ترین رپورٹ کے مطابق جون کے مہینے میں مجموعی طور پر دہشتگردی اور تشدد کے واقعات میں نمایاں کمی دیکھنے میں آئی ہے۔ رپورٹ کے مطابق جون میں دہشتگردی کے 108 واقعات رپورٹ ہوئے جبکہ مئی میں یہ ت��داد 128 تھی۔ سیکیورٹی فورسز کے آپریشنز کے دوران 184 دہشتگرد ہلاک ہوئے جبکہ 26 سیکیورٹی اہلکار اور 52 شہری اپنی جانوں سے ہاتھ دھو بیٹھے۔

اگرچہ مجموعی واقعات میں 16 فیصد تک کمی ریکارڈ کی گئی ہے، لیکن کراچی میں سندھ رینجرز پر حملے سمیت جون میں کم از کم چار خودکش حملے بھی ہوئے جو اس بات کی نشاندہی کرتے ہیں کہ ہائی پروفائل حملوں کا خطرہ تاحال موجود ہے۔ صوبائی سطح پر بلوچستان اور سابقہ فاٹا کے قبائلی اضلاع میں دہشتگردی میں کمی آئی ہے، تاہم خیبر پختونخوا کے دیگر علاقوں میں واقعات میں معمولی اضافہ دیکھا گیا ہے۔ خیبر نیوز سیکیورٹی اداروں کی قربانیوں اور وطنِ عزیز میں امن کی بحالی کے لیے جاری کوششوں کو خراجِ تحسین پیش کرتا ہے۔ 🇵🇰👮‍♂️

*High-Profile Attacks Persist, but Overall Militant Violence Declines in June 2026: PICSS*

Islamabad, July 1, 2026: Despite several high-profile attacks, Pakistan witnessed a decline in overall anti-state violence and related security incidents during June 2026, according to the Pakistan Institute for Conflict and Security Studies (PICSS), an Islamabad-based think tank monitoring militancy, anti-state violence and related security trends.

According to PICSS, at least 262 people were killed and 134 injured in June 2026. Militants accounted for the largest share of fatalities, as 184 militants were killed in actions by Pakistani security forces. Apart from militants, 52 civilians and 26 security forces personnel also lost their lives during the month.

The breakdown of the injured showed that 63 civilians, 50 security forces personnel, 18 pro-government peace committee members and three militants were wounded. Compared with May 2026, fatalities among Pakistani security forces declined by 62 percent, while civilian deaths dropped by 27 percent. Militant fatalities also registered a 32 percent decrease. Among the injured, PICSS recorded a 43 percent decline in security forces casualties, a 57 percent decrease among civilians and a 67 percent reduction among militants.

PICSS also noted a 50 percent reduction in kidnappings, with 27 people kidnapped in June compared with 54 in May 2026. Pakistani security forces also arrested at least 27 suspected militants during the month.

The number of militant attacks also declined, falling from 128 in May to 108 in June, a reduction of around 16 percent. However, the country continued to face high-impact attacks, including at least four suicide attacks. Three of these were vehicle-borne suicide bombings, including a high-profile attack targeting Sindh Rangers in Karachi.

Balochistan witnessed a significant decline in militant violence, with 49 attacks reported in June compared with 71 in May, marking a 31 percent reduction. The tribal districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, formerly FATA, also recorded a decline, with 17 attacks in June compared with 22 in May, a decrease of 23 percent. However, the rest of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa witnessed a slight increase, with 37 attacks reported in June compared with 32 in May, showing a 16 percent rise. Sindh also recorded an increase, with four attacks reported in June compared with only one in May 2026. Punjab witnessed only one attack, while no militant attack was reported from Islamabad, Azad Kashmir or Gilgit-Baltistan.

During the first six months of 2026, PICSS recorded 2,166 fatalities, including 1,442 militants, 404 civilians, 307 security forces personnel and 13 members of pro-government peace committees. Another 1,137 people were injured during this period, including 692 civilians, 281 security forces personnel, 136 militants and 28 peace committee members.

د پاکستان د شخړو او امنیتي مطالعاتو انسټیټیوټ (PICSS) په خپل تازه راپور کې ویلي، چې د ۲۰۲۶ کال د جون په میاشت کې په دغه هېواد کې د وسله‌ والو بریدونو او امنیتي پېښو له امله ټولټال ۲۶۲ کسان وژل شوي او ۱۳۴ نور ټپیان شوي دي.

د راپور له مخې، په وژل شویو کسانو کې ۱۸۴ وسله‌ وال، ۵۲ ملکي وګړي او ۲۶ پاکستاني پوځیان شامل دي.

انسټیټیوټ ادعا کړې، چې د مې میاشتې په پرتله د وسله‌ والو بریدونو او مرګ‌ ژوبلې کچه راکمه شوې ده.

د راپور له مخې، په جون میاشت کې ۱۰۸ وسله‌ وال بریدونه ثبت شوي، په داسې حال کې چې دا شمېر په مې میاشت کې ۱۲۸ بریدونه و.

راپور زیاتوي، چې د جون په میاشت کې لږ تر لږه څلور ځانمرګي بریدونه ترسره شوي، چې درې یې د موټربم بریدونه وو. په دغو کې د کراچۍ ښار د سند رنجرز ځواکونو پر مرکز برید هم شامل دی.

د معلوماتو له مخې زیاته ناامني په خیبرپښتونخوا او بلوچستان کې ثبت شوې ده، چې باور ښودل کېږي د پاکستان حکومت او امنیتي ادارو د سیمې د بې ثباتۍ لپاره په لوی لاس جوړ�� کړې ده.

ورته مهال پاکستان خپله ناامني له افغانستانه د سرچینې په توګه یادوي، خو طالبان وايي پاکستان یې پر ضد د داعش او نورو ډلو ملاتړ کوي.
