Security forces complete clearance operation in Balochistan: ISPR
Yesterday’s reports are here and here.
[Dawn] The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Saturday that the clearance operation in 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...
, which was launched after turbans attacked security forces camps in the province's Panjgur and Naushki areas late on Wednesday evening, had been completed.

Twenty bad boyz were potted during operations after the attacks, the military's media affairs wing said in a statement, adding that nine security personnel had embraced martyrdom.

"Both attacks were repulsed successfully by prompt response from troops at both locations," the ISPR said.

It added that nine of the bad boyz were potted in Naushki and four security personnel, including an officer, were martyred during an exchange of fire with the snuffies there.

In Panjgur, the ISPR said, security forces had repulsed the terrorist attack after an intense exchange of fire during which some of the snuffies had fled the area.

Security forces had carried out a clearance operation to hunt down the hiding turbans in the vicinity, it said, adding that initially four fleeing bad boyz were potted there and as many were encircled by security forces the next day.

"All encircled bad boyz were potted in today’s (Saturday) operation as they failed to surrender," the ISPR said.

The military's media wing said five soldiers, including a junior commissioned officer, were martyred and six injured during follow-up operations in Panjgur over the past 72 hours.

Moreover, the ISPR said, three terrorists, including two high-value targets, linked to the attacks were killed in Kech district's Balgatar area on Friday.

These bad boyz were potted in a follow up clearance operation conducted at a makeshift terrorist hideout.

"Our security forces stand firm and resolutely committed to eliminating the menace of terrorism from our soil no matter [at] what the cost," the ISPR said.

Earlier, the ISPR had said intelligence agencies had intercepted communications between the turbans who carried out attacks in Balochistan and their handlers in Afghanistan and India.

The attacks in Naushki and Panjgur were claimed by the banned holy warrior outfit Baloch Liberation Army (BLA).
