Senior TTP commander killed in Pakistan border operation
[KhaamaPress] A senior TTP commander, Hafizullah Mubariz, was killed by Pak forces near the Afghanistan border, according to Pak media reports.

Pak media reported on Saturday, April 12, that Hafizullah Mubarez, a senior commander of Tehrik-e-Taliban

Pakistain (TTP), was killed in a military operation near the Pakistain-Afghanistan border. Mubarez, widely known by his alias "Kochawan," was considered a key figure within the holy warrior group.

According to The Express Tribune, the Pak military conducted the operation that led to Mubarez’s death. He had been leading TTP’s special forces in the Malakand region of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province and parts of Kunar province

in eastern Afghanistan.

Security sources confirmed to Pak outlets that Mubarez played a critical role in planning and executing deadly attacks on both Pak and U.S. forces. His involvement extended to multiple cross-border operations targeting Pak military personnel.

The slain commander was also reportedly behind several terror attacks on civilians and state institutions within Pakistain. He had long been on Pakistain’s most-wanted list, with a reward of 10 million Pak rupees announced for information leading to his capture.

Pak intelligence officials stated that Mubarez was responsible for orchestrating assaults along the porous Pakistain-Afghanistan border. These areas have long been a hotspot for Death Eater activity and holy warrior hideouts, particularly since the fall of Kabul in 2021.

In response to repeated border attacks, Islamabad has accused TTP of using Afghanistan territory to launch strikes—a claim that has consistently been denied by the Taliban-led government in Kabul. Despite efforts to secure the border, tensions between the two nations remain high.

The killing of Hafizullah Mubarez marks a significant counterterrorism achievement for Pakistain but also underscores the persistent threat posed by the TTP and other holy warrior networks operating in border regions.

Analysts believe that unless cross-border cooperation and intelligence-sharing between Afghanistan and Pakistain improve, such assassinations may offer only temporary relief from the threat of Death Eater violence.
