2023-02-11
[Dawn] Two Pakistain Army soldiers were martyred after an improvised bomb (IED) went kaboom! in Balochsitan’s Kohlu area, the military’s media wing said on Friday.

"Based on credible intelligence, a sanitisation operation was initiated on Feb 10 in the Kohlu area of Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
to deny Lions of Islam any liberty of action," the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement.

During the ensuing sanitisation of the area, the ISPR said, an IED went kaboom! close to the leading party.

"Resultantly, two officers — identified as Major Jawad and Captain Sagheer — embraced martyrdom and laid their lives in defence of the motherland against an externally perpetrated threat."

The ISPR said that a sanitisation operation is under way in the area to apprehend perpetrators and enemies of peace.

"Such cowardly acts by inimical elements cannot sabotage the hard-earned peace and prosperity in Balochistan. Security Forces are determined to neutralise their nefarious designs even at the cost of blood and lives," the statement concluded.

Earlier, the medical superintendent of the District Healthquarter Hospital (DHQ) Kohlu told Dawn.com that an emergency had been imposed at the medical facility.

All the medical staff, doctors and paramedics have been alerted, he added.

Today’s attack in Balochistan was the latest in a series of terrorist attacks which spiked since the outlawed Tehrik-e-Taliban

Pakistain (TTP) rescinded the ceasefire with the government in 2021.

According to a report, January was the deadliest month since 2018, in which 134 people bit the dust — a 139 per cent spike — and 254 received injuries in at least 44 bad boy attacks across the country.

Last week, a Coast guard was martyred and seven others were maimed in a landmine explosion and subsequent ambush by armed snuffies in the Jiwani area of Gwadar district.

On Feb 6, seven people were maimed in two terrorist attacks in Quetta.

Five people, including an office-bearer of the Civil Secretariat Staff Association, suffered injuries in the first attack. The outlawed TTP later had grabbed credit for the blast, saying that it was a suicide kaboom.

In the second attack, a woman and her child were maimed when unknown persons riding cycle of violences hurled a grenade into the house of Nazeer Ahmed on Mano Jan Road. The grenade went kaboom! in the courtyard.
