ZIARAT: In a resounding success for national security, security forces eliminated four heavily armed terrorists during a successful intelligence-led area sanitization operation in the Wam Tangi area of Balochistan’s Ziarat district on October 16.
The operation was conducted under the ongoing counter-terrorism framework of Operation Rad-ul-Fitna 3, reflecting the state’s unwavering resolve to root out the remnants of foreign-backed proxies and extremist outfits attempting to disrupt peace in the province.
Decisive Action in Wam Tangi
According to security sources, intelligence agencies detected suspicious movement and hideouts utilized by anti-state elements in the rugged terrain of Wam Tangi, Ziarat. Responding swiftly, security forces cordoned off the area to neutralize the threat.
During the ensuing intense exchange of fire, four hardcore terrorists—identified by authorities as part of a lethal network planning sabotage activities—were sent to hell. A significant cache of automatic weapons, ammunition, and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) was recovered from the possession of the slain militants, thwarting a major catastrophe.
State Resolve Against Terrorist Proxies
The successful neutralization of these terrorists underscores the exceptional operational readiness, intelligence capabilities, and coordination of Pakistan’s armed forces and law enforcement agencies.
Local civil society and provincial leadership lauded the security forces for their prompt and decisive action, emphasizing that the state will continue to crush every conspiracy aimed at undermining Pakistan’s sovereignty and regional development. Area sanitization operations are ongoing in the surrounding rugged terrain to ensure absolute security and peace for the local population.
