Earlier in the day, Pakistan’s military reported conducting effective strikes agaist hideouts inside Iran used by terrorists responsible for recent attacks in Pakistan.
The Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR), the media wing of the Pakistan Army, stated that precision strikes were carried out using various military assets, including killer drones, rockets, loitering munitions, and stand-off weapons. The operation, codenamed ‘Marg Bar Sarmachar,’ aimed at specific hideouts used by terrorist organizations such as the Balochistan Liberation Army and Balochistan Liberation Front.
The targeted individuals included notorious terrorists Dosta (Chairman), Bajjar (Soghat), Sahil (Shafaq), Asghar (Basham), Wazir (Wazi), among others. The ISPR emphasized that maximum care was taken to avoid collateral damage during the intelligence-based operation.
The retaliatory attack by Pakistan followed Iran’s airstrikes in Panjgur on Tuesday, which elicited strong condemnation from Islamabad and resulted in the downgrading of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Iran’s initial airstrikes were prompted by the escalation of tensions, particularly in response to alleged cross-border terrorist activities by groups based in Pakistan.
