The terrorists targeted civilians and took human lives. According to security sources, the terrorists involved in this attack are in touch with their mastermind in Afghanistan.

Security forces have taken immediate action and surrounded the terrorists, however, due to the use of women and children as human shields by the terrorists and the complex geographical situation of the area, the operation is being carried out with utmost caution.

According to government sources, the enemy elements are trying to mislead the public by spreading fake information on social media.

Indian media is also involved in negative propaganda against Pakistan and is trying to further worsen the situation by broadcasting analyses of self-proclaimed fugitive Baloch leaders abroad.

The public has been appealed to seek information from authentic sources instead of believing in false news spread on social media
