ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Armed Forces<\/a>, late on the night of October 11\/12, repelled a cross-border attack by the Afghan Taliban and Indian-sponsored Fitna al-Khwarij along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cOver 200 Taliban and affiliated terrorists have been neutralized, besides the capture of 21 hostile positions on the Afghan side of the border by the Pakistan Armed Forces,\u201d said an Inter-Services Public Relations<\/a> (ISPR) news release.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
However, during overnight skirmishes, 23 brave sons of Pakistan embraced Shahadat while defending the territorial integrity of our beloved country against this outrageous action, while 29 soldiers sustained injuries, it further said.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u00a0\u201cOn the night of 11\/12 Oct 2025, Afghan Taliban and Indian-sponsored Fitna al Khawarij launched an unprovoked attack on Pakistan, along the Pak-Afghan border.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The cowardly action, which included fire and few physical raids, was aimed at destabilizing the border areas to facilitate terrorism, furthering Fitna al Khawarij\u2019s nefarious designs,\u201d\u00a0 the news release said.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\u201cExercising the right of self-defence, the alert Armed Forces of Pakistan repelled the assault decisively all along the border and inflicted heavy casualties on Taliban Forces and affiliated Khwarjis.<\/div>\n
Precision fires and strikes, as well as physical raids, were directed against Taliban camps and posts, terrorist training facilities and support networks operating from Afghan territory, including elements linked to Fitna al Khwarij (FAK), Fitna al Hindustan (FAH) and ISKP\/ Daesh.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
All possible measures were taken to avoid collateral damage and to protect civilian lives,\u201d the news release said.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Multiple terrorist training camps, used to plan and facilitate attacks against Pakistan, were also rendered inoperative, it further said.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The infra-structural damages to Taliban posts, camps, Headquarters, and support networks of terrorists are extensive, all along the border and range from tactical to operational depth.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Armed Forces of Pakistan remain ever ready to protect the territorial integrity, life, and property of the people of Pakistan. Our resolve to defend Pakistan\u2019s territorial integrity and to defeat those who threaten our security is unwavering.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cWhile the people of Pakistan prefer constructive diplomacy and dialogue over violence and belligerence, we will not tolerate the treacherous use of Afghan soil for terrorism against Pakistan. We have noted with concern that this serious provocation has occurred during the visit of the Taliban Foreign Minister to India, the biggest sponsor of terrorism in the region,\u201d the news release said.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cIn the interest of regional peace and security, we call upon the Taliban Government to take immediate and verifiable actions to neutralize the terrorist groups, inter alia, FAK, FAH, and ISKP\/ Daesh operating from their territory.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Otherwise, Pakistan will continue to exercise its right to defend its people by persistent neutralization of terror targets. The Taliban Government should shun any ill-begotten notions and prioritize well-being, peace, prosperity, and development of the Afghan people over irresponsible sabre-rattling,\u201d it said.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cLast night\u2019s episode vindicates Pakistan\u2019s long-standing position that the Taliban Government is actively facilitating the terrorists.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If the Taliban Government continues to sponsor terrorist outfits, in cohorts with India, for the shortsighted objective of destabilizing the region, the people and the state of Pakistan will not rest until the menace of terrorism emanating from Afghanistan is eliminated,\u201d the news release added.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
