Pakistan’s security forces have killed three militants, including a commander, during an operation in Mastung district of Balochistan.
Troops used a quadcopter to target a vehicle belonging to a group referred to by Pakistani authorities as “Fitna-al-Hindustan”. The vehicle was destroyed and three militants were killed, Dawn reports, citing security sources.
Balochistan has seen a rise in militant attacks in recent weeks, prompting Pakistani security forces to intensify counter-terrorism operations.
