ISLAMABAD: Security forces eliminated two terrorists affiliated with the Indian proxy group “Fitna al Hindustan” during a high-stakes intelligence-based operation in Balochistan’s Kachhi district, the military’s media wing said on Friday.
The intense exchange of fire took place in the Kolpur area, where the presence of Indian-backed militants had been reported.
According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the terrorists were effectively targeted, and their position was neutralized after fierce resistance.
The operation also led to the recovery of arms and ammunition from the site.
“These terrorists were actively involved in numerous Indian-sponsored attacks aimed at destabilizing the region,” said the ISPR, reaffirming that the operation is part of a broader sanitization campaign to root out remaining threats.
Nationwide Crackdown on Indian Proxy Networks
This operation comes as part of a broader military strategy to dismantle Indian-sponsored terror networks operating in Pakistan.
The government has officially designated all such outfits as part of “Fitna al Hindustan,” marking them as foreign-backed threats to national security.
Just last week, four soldiers embraced martyrdom while 12 terrorists linked to similar proxy groups were killed in major operations across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan.
Earlier this week, another seven terrorists were neutralized in separate engagements in the province.
Rising Threat Despite Regional Tensions
Despite elevated tensions between India and Pakistan, the Pakistan Institute for Conflict and Security Studies (PICSS) reported that militant activity has remained largely under control, with 85 incidents recorded in May—only slightly higher than April.
However, the toll remains high, with 113 fatalities, including security personnel and civilians.
The ISPR reiterated its commitment to eliminating foreign-sponsored terrorism and safeguarding national sovereignty.
