Islamabad: In a major push to secure Pakistan’s western borders, security forces have carried out a series of coordinated operations targeting militant groups, including the Afghan Taliban, Fitna al-Khawarij, and Fitna al-Hindustan, security sources confirmed.
According to officials, the operations focused on strategic positions along the Pak-Afghan border, including Chaman, Zhob, Kila Saifullah, Nushki, Sambaza, Ghadwana, Jani, and Ghaznali sectors.
Over the course of several nights from March 3 to 5, forces struck as many as 41 militant positions and 50 hideouts, inflicting heavy casualties and destroying key infrastructure.
Among the key successes reported, the Pakistani Army destroyed the 205 Corps Brigade Headquarters of the Afghan Taliban in Kandahar and targeted ammunition depots, significantly disrupting the militants’ operational capabilities. Officials noted that these measures are part of the ongoing Operation Ghazab lil-Haq, which will continue until all designated objectives are achieved.

The operations, conducted with precision using heavy weapons, aimed to prevent cross-border terrorism and neutralize threats to Pakistan’s security. Security sources emphasized that these areas had been used by militants to plan and launch attacks inside Pakistan.
Chief of Defence Forces and Army Chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, highlighted that lasting peace between Pakistan and Afghanistan depends on the Taliban regime abandoning support for terrorist organisations.
During his visit to Wana in South Waziristan, Munir reviewed security measures along the western border and reiterated Pakistan’s commitment to eliminating extremist threats in the region.
Officials underscored that the operations have caused substantial human and material losses to militant groups, signaling Pakistan’s determination to maintain border security and regional stability.
This recent surge in operations represents a strategic shift to proactively target militant infrastructure, rather than merely responding to attacks, aiming to disrupt cross-border networks and limit extremist influence along the frontier.
