Pakistani security forces killed four suspected terrorists in an operation in the Khad Kocha area of Mastung, Balochistan, according to state media. These deaths follow an earlier operation on Thursday that resulted in the deaths of six terrorists and multiple arrests, including suspected female suicide bombers and facilitators. Authorities have identified the slain terrorists as belonging to Fitna-al-Hindustan, a group Pakistan alleges has ties to India and is involved in destabilizing activities. The operations follow a series of attacks, including a bus shooting and bridge explosion, that prompted a curfew in the Khud Kocha area. Significant quantities of weapons and ammunition were recovered during the operations, and search and clearance efforts are ongoing. Over the past 48 hours, security forces have reported killing a total of ten terrorists and apprehending several suspects across Balochistan, highlighting the region’s ongoing security challenges.
