Security forces neutralized four drones across Balochistan: ISPR

QUETTA: On 30 June, the Afghan Taliban regime launched four (4) rudimentary drones across the border in Balochistan as part of their patronage and support of terrorist outfits operating from inside their controlled territories.

According to the press release issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the hostile aerial platforms were immediately picked up by Pakistan’s robust air defence network.

Demonstrating high operational readiness, security forces successfully neutralized all four incoming drones using sophisticated countermeasures. Due to the swift and effective response, the malicious attempts were effectively thwarted.

Such gimmicks of the Afghan Taliban regime are aimed at misleading the Afghan population suffering under their oppressive regime. The Afghan Taliban should realise that their irresponsible behaviour is only adding to the hardships of the Afghan people.

Instead of trying to sedate their population through such antics and hollow rhetoric, they should eschew sponsorship of terrorism and adhere to the principle of peaceful coexistence.

However, if the Afghan Taliban continue to provoke Pakistan, they would receive a befitting response which would cost them heavily.

The Pakistan Armed Forces remain fully vigilant and capable of defending every inch of the motherland. Any misadventures or cross-border provocations threatening the sovereignty of Pakistan and endangering our people will continue to be met with swift, decisive, and overwhelming responses under Operation Ghazab-lil-Haq.
