The security forces of Pakistan remain determined to thwart attempts to sabotage the peace, stability, and progress of Balochistan. This operation comes after the recent killing of two soldiers and two terrorists during a heavy exchange of fire in the Awaran district. Pakistan has witnessed an increase in terror activities in recent months, particularly in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, following the end of the ceasefire between the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and the government. The number of militant attacks in August reached the highest tally in almost nine years, according to data compiled by the Pakistan Institute for Conflict and Security Studies (PICSS).
The report stated that there were 99 attacks across the country, marking the highest number in a single month since November 2014. These incidents highlight the ongoing challenges faced by Pakistan's security forces in combating terrorism and maintaining stability in the region. The government remains committed to ensuring the safety and security of its citizens, as well as preventing terrorist organizations from exploiting vulnerable areas. The successful intelligence-based operation in Balochistan is a testament to the determination and effectiveness of the security forces in countering terrorist threats.
