Gwadar, July 18, 2024: On Thursday, security forces thwarted a terrorist attack in Balochistan’s port city of Gwadar with timely action.
According to reports, terrorists had planted an improvised explosive device (IED) in the Mandi area during the night.
Security forces, along with the bomb disposal squad, conducted a swift and efficient operation to neutralize the threat and foil the terrorist plans.
Meanwhile, security forces have completed the clearance operation in the area.
Earlier this week, eight Pakistan Army soldiers were martyred while thwarting an attack on Bannu Cantonment on July 15.
In a statement, the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said a group of ten terrorists attacked Bannu Cantonment on Monday.
“The attempt to enter the cantonment was effectively thwarted by security forces personnel, forcing the terrorists to ram an explosive-laden vehicle into the perimeter wall of the cantonment,” the official statement read.
The suicide blast led to the collapse of a portion of the wall and damaged the adjoining infrastructure.
