RAWALPINDI – Pakistan’s security forces gunned down fifteen militants linked to Indian-sponsored Fitna Al Khwarij in two separate intelligence-based operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on 15–16 November 2025, ISPR said.
The first operation was conducted in Kulachi, Dera Ismail Khan District in which troops successfully engaged a militant hideout, resulting in the elimination of ten militants, including the notorious group leader, Alam Mehsud.
In a separate mission in Datta Khel, North Waziristan District, security forces neutralized five additional militants, further crippling the network.
Authorities launched comprehensive sanitization operations in both areas to ensure no remaining Indian-backed militants are left. These operations form part of Pakistan’s sustained counter-terrorism campaign under the vision “Azm-e-Istehkam”, as mandated by the Federal Apex Committee on the National Action Plan.
Officials said that the campaign will continue at full intensity until the threat of foreign-supported terrorism is completely eliminated from Pakistan. The operations are major blow to militant networks attempting to destabilize the region and highlight the resolute commitment of Pakistan’s security and law enforcement agencies.
