ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s security forces have killed four Indian sponsored terrorists during an intelligence-based operation in Balochistan on September 12, a military statement said on Friday.
“On 12 Sep 2025, security forces conducted an intelligence-based operation in Mastung District of Balochistan, on the reported presence of terrorists belonging to Indian proxy, Fitna al Hindustan,” the military’s media wing, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), said in a statement.
It said during the conduct of the operation, the forces effectively engaged the terrorists’ location, and after an intense fire exchange, four Indian sponsored terrorists were sent to hell.
Weapons recovered
The ISPR said weapons, ammunition, and explosives were also recovered from the terrorists, who remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities in the area.
“Sanitisation operation is being conducted to eliminate any other terrorists found in the area,” it said.
According to the statement, the security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of Indian sponsored terrorism from the country and reaffirm the nation’s unwavering resolve to bring the perpetrators of terrorism to justice.
Pakistan witnessed a surge in terror attacks, particularly in its Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and Balochistan provinces, since the return of Taliban rulers in Afghanistan in 2021.
In May this year, Pakistan saw a slight uptick in terror attacks even as heightened military tensions with neighbouring India failed to trigger a significant escalation in violence from extremist groups.
