Pakistan Neutralises Nearly 70 Militants in Intelligence-Based Strikes Along Afghan Border: Talal Chaudhry

Talal Chaudhry, Pakistan’s State Minister for Interior, has announced that nearly 70 terrorists were neutralised following targeted strikes conducted along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.

According to the government, the intelligence-based operations focused on seven militant camps and hideouts associated with Fitna al-Khawarij (FAK), its affiliated groups, and Daesh-Khorasan. The strikes were carried out in response to a series of recent suicide attacks inside Pakistan.

Officials said the action was aimed at dismantling cross-border terrorist infrastructure and preventing further attacks on Pakistani soil.

The minister criticised Afghanistan’s role in regional security. “Afghanistan has long been exporting terrorism. Pakistan is taking all actions to secure the life and property of its citizens,” the state minister said.

The government reiterated its commitment to safeguarding national security and warned that further measures would be taken if necessary to counter militant threats emanating from across the border.
