Security forces killed four terrorists during an intelligence-based operation in Mastung District of Balochistan on September 12, 2025, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement.

According to ISPR, the operation was launched on the reported presence of terrorists belonging to Fitna al Hindustan, an Indian proxy group. “During the conduct of operation, own forces effectively engaged the terrorists’ location, and after an intense fire exchange, four Indian sponsored terrorists were sent to hell,” the statement read.

The military’s media wing further said that weapons, ammunition and explosives were recovered from the killed terrorists, who had been “actively involved in numerous terrorist activities in the area.”

ISPR added that a sanitisation operation was being carried out to eliminate any remaining terrorists. “The security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of Indian sponsored terrorism from the country, and reaffirm the nation’s unwavering resolve to bring the perpetrators of terrorism to justice,” the statement said.
