21 Terrorists Killed in Intelligence-Based Operations Across K-P: ISPR

ISPR said 25 militants were killed in border and inland operations as Pakistan stepped up counterterrorism efforts against infiltration attempts.

  • On Sunday, the Inter-Services Public Relations reported that security forces killed at least 21 Indian-sponsored Fitna Al-Khawarij militants in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa between September 3 and 5.
  • The ISPR stated that repeated border incidents "vindicated Pakistan's persistent stance" regarding the "abject failure" of the Afghan Taliban to prevent infiltration attempts, with 25 militants neutralized overall.
  • Operations included 15 militants killed foiling an infiltration attempt near North Waziristan on August 31–September 1, while four additional terrorists were neutralized in separate engagements in Kohat and Dera Ismail Khan.
  • Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif paid tribute to the Armed Forces, stating the nation stands "shoulder to shoulder" with them, while the ISPR confirmed clearance operations continue to eliminate remaining militants.
  • These operations occur under the "Azm-e-Istehkam" vision as data from ACLED shows attacks in Pakistan rose to 2,425 in 2025 from 658 in 2022, underscoring persistent terrorism threats.
