7 terrorists killed in 2 Balochistan’s IBOs

According to a statement released today by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), seven terrorists affiliated with the Indian proxy group Fitna al Hindustan were neutralized in two distinct intelligence-based operations (IBOs) conducted in Balochistan. The initial operation took place in the Mach area of Kachhi district, prompted by intelligence pertaining to terrorist presence. The ensuing exchange of fire resulted in the death of five terrorists. The second IBO, executed in the Margand area of Kalat district, led to the discovery and dismantling of a terrorist hideout, and the elimination of two terrorists. During both IBOs, security forces recovered arms, ammunition, and explosives from the deceased terrorists, who were reportedly implicated in numerous terrorist activities. Data released by the Pakistan Institute for Conflict and Security Studies (PICSS) indicates an increase in militant attacks, with 85 incidents reported in May compared to 81 in April. These attacks resulted in 113 casualties, comprising 52 security force members, 46 civilians, 11 militants, and four peace committee members.
