An intelligence-based operation was carried out by the Pakistan military force on Tuesday which ended up killing at least 10 suspected terrorists in Balochistan province, according to Pakistan’s military statement.
The Pakistan military conducted an intelligence-based operation in the Hoshab area of the southwestern province; Pakistan army media wing Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said. “As security forces were in the process of establishing blocking positions after identification of 12 to 14 terrorists’ location, terrorists opened fire onto the security forces,” the ISPR statement said. It also added that as a result of heavy exchange of fire, 10 terrorists were killed while another was arrested in injured condition.
In the incident two terrorists managed to escape, the operation to search for them continues in the area, the ISPR said.
Along with planting improvised explosive devices, the terrorists who were slain were involved in shooting incidents that targeted both security personnel and civilians, it was claimed.
The terrorists’ lairs yielded a sizable haul of weapons and ammunition, including improvised explosive devices.
According to the Pakistani military, security forces have remained committed to thwarting attempts to undermine the peace, stability, and prosperity of Balochistan.
Two alleged armed terrorists were murdered last week during a security operation in the Hoshab neighbourhood of Balor.
