5 terrorists arrested during intelligence-based operation in Pishin: ISPR
[GeoTV] Security forces apprehended five bully boyz — or "Khawarij" — in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) conducted 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...
's Pishin, said the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) on Saturday.

During the operation, a large number of weapons, ammunition, and explosives, including three boom jackets, were seized from the faceless myrmidons involved in multiple terrorist attacks who were planning to target security forces as well as innocent civilians, added the military's media wing.

The development comes amid security forces' ongoing efforts to curb the scourge of terrorism which has witnessed a notable spike in recent times.

As per the third quarterly report (Q3) issued by the Centre for Research and Security Studies (CRSS), the total fatalities from three quarters of this year have surpassed the total fatalities recorded for the entire of 2023 with 1,534 deaths compared to last year's 1,523.

A total of 722 people were killed, including civilians, security personnel, and outlaws, while 615 others were maimed in as many as 328 incidents recorded during the third quarter.

Balochistan and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa have been on the forefront of the country's war against terror and have faced the brunt of terror attacks.

Separately, the ISPR also said that the security forces carried out an IBO in Balochistan's Zhob district on Thursday wherein two khawarij were eliminated and weapons and ammunition were recovered during the sanitisation operation.

Security forces of Pakistain remain steadfast in their commitment to eradicate terrorism from the country and protect innocent civilians from this menace, added the ISPR.

Lauding the security forces' efforts, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif commended the officers and soldiers.

"The entire nation including myself, pays tribute to the brave Pakistain Army soldiers and officers for purging the country from Fitna al-Khawarij," said the premier, adding that the entire nation stood united with the armed forces in their mission to thwart the ambitions of country's enemies who wish to spread unrest and stability.

The recent IBO's come after security forces, last week, neutralised four bully boyz in two separate intelligence-based operations in KP districts.
