'Bombed Our Civilian, Dozens Killed': Pakistan Strikes 'Militant Hideouts' Along Afghanistan Border

In a recent military operation, Pakistan has targeted seven camps associated with the Pakistani Taliban along its border with Afghanistan, resulting in significant casualties. According to Information Minister Attaullah Tarar, these 'intelligence-based, selective operations' were aimed at neutralizing militant hideouts that pose a threat to national security. The operations have drawn criticism, with reports suggesting that civilian lives have been lost amidst the strikes. This escalation in military activity highlights the ongoing struggle Pakistan faces against terrorism, particularly from groups operating in the border regions. The government asserts that such actions are necessary to safeguard the country's stability. However, the loss of civilian lives raises concerns about the implications of these military strategies and the potential for further unrest. The situation remains tense, as the Pakistani military continues to navigate the complexities of counter-terrorism in a region marked by longstanding conflict and instability.
