Pakistani Forces Kill 24 Militants and 4 Soldiers in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan
Pakistani security forces conducted coordinated intelligence-based operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, resulting in the deaths of at least 24 militants and four soldiers, including an officer. Militants used armed quadcopters to attack military patrols, killing two soldiers. The army targeted groups labeled 'Fitna al Hindustan' in Balochistan and 'Fitna al-Khawarij' linked to the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Weapons and ammunition were recovered, and India has criticized Pakistan's designation of these groups as linked to Indian support.
