Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry has said that India was preparing another false flag operation in the deep sea. He warned that India should know, this time the response will be more severe than before. DG ISPR said Pakistan was ready to protect its borders.
DG ISPR said that Pakistan army’s response against Afghanistan was swift as 112 terrorists belonging to Fitna Khawarij were killed during recent Pak-Afghan clashes, reported 24NewsHD TV Channel.
Talking to senior journalists and social media influencers, DG ISPR said 206 Afghan Taliban killed during Pak-Afghan tension. TTP is a branch of Afghan Taliban as TTP pledges allegiance to Afghan Taliban emir.
He said that 62,113 operations were conducted this year, mostly in Balochistan and 208 operations were being conducted on a daily basis. He said during these operations 582 soldiers martyred. Gen Ahmed Sharif Ch said poppy growers receive political patronage. He said efforts were being made to settle matters with Afghanistan.
Director-General Inter-Services Public Relations said on Monday that the conditions set by Afghanistan hold no significance and only the elimination of terrorism matters to Pakistan. He said the important thing for Pakistan is the eradication of terrorism and the conditions set by Afghanistan hold no significance.
He added that the guarantors of Pakistani security are the armed forces and Islamabad has never celebrated the arrival of the Taliban.
The military spokesperson further said that operations are underway against banned groups, including the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA), with 1,667 terrorists killed.
In Istanbul, the Afghan Taliban were clearly told that they need to control terrorism, Lt Gen Chaudhry stated. There will be no talks with terrorists, and Pakistan gave the Afghan Taliban a befitting response, which yielded the results we wanted.
DG ISPR highlighted the role of the nexus between criminals and terrorist organisations, noting that through opium cultivation, terrorists make between Rs1.8 and 2.5 million per acre. The entire population joins them, even warlords join in, and they all work together, Lt Gen Chaudhry said. He added that drugs are being smuggled from Afghanistan into Pakistan and further.
Pakistan and Afghanistan saw a worsening of ties during recent weeks, which featured border skirmishes, counter-statements and allegations.
The hostilities began last month when an attack was launched on Pakistan from Afghanistan on the night of October 11. The attack had followed an allegation from the Afghan Taliban of airstrikes by Pakistan into Afghanistan — an accusation which Islamabad has neither confirmed nor denied.
For its part, Islamabad has long demanded that the Taliban stop terror groups from using its soil against Pakistan. The Taliban, however, deny the allegation of allowing terrorists to operate from Afghan soil. Türkiye and Qatar have deep ties with Pakistan, while Qatar also played a major role in the negotiations between the Afghan Taliban and Nato forces.
