QUETTA: In two separate intelligence-based operations conducted on 28 May, security forces killed five terrorists associated with the Indian-backed proxy group “Fitna-e-Hindustan” in the Loralai and Kech districts of Balochistan, according to a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
In Loralai, the operation followed credible intelligence about the presence of the group’s operatives. A heavy exchange of fire ensued, resulting in the killing of four militants. The ISPR confirmed the recovery of weapons, ammunition and explosive material from the site. The group’s members were reportedly involved in a series of past attacks and were deemed a serious threat to national security. A separate operation in Kech district led to the death of another terrorist linked to “Fitna-e-Hindustan.”
According to the ISPR, the individual was responsible for two deadly attacks on the N-70 highway near Rarasham, carried out on 26 August 2024 and 18 February 2025. These attacks claimed the lives of 30 civilians. The ISPR stressed that the slain militants had been operating under Indian patronage and were being closely tracked by law enforcement for their role in subversive activities across the region. Security forces had been pursuing them over a prolonged period.
Reaffirming their stance, the ISPR said that security forces remain committed to eradicating terrorism, particularly those acts orchestrated under foreign sponsorship. The statement concluded with a firm assurance that all individuals involved in such violence, including their facilitators, will be brought to justice in the interest of national peace and stability.
