In response, the security forces successfully neutralized 58 militants, with operations ongoing at multiple sites.
Security forces continue to pursue terrorists at multiple locations, with sources reporting additional militant casualties and losses. They added that the attacks carried out by Fitna al-Hindustan (FAH) last night were thwarted due to timely and effective action by security forces and other law enforcement agencies (LEAs).

We will continue the war against the scourge of terrorism until its complete eradication from the country.”
