ISLAMABAD ( WNAM REPORT ): Pakistan said Sunday that its forces launched new strikes overnight inside Afghanistan that “successfully” targeted military installations, including “terrorist hideouts,” as tensions between the two neighbors escalated.
State-run Pakistan Television said the military “effectively” destroyed technical support infrastructure and an equipment storage facility in southern Kandahar province, which were being used “by Afghan Taliban and terrorists against innocent Pakistani civilians.”
In another strike, Pakistani forces “successfully” targeted a tunnel in Kandhar that housed technical equipment of the Afghan Taliban and “Fitna al-Khawarij,” a term Islamabad uses to designate the Pakistani Taliban.
Islamabad warned that the “Ghazab-lil-Haq” or the “Righteous Fury” operation would continue until the Afghan Taliban addressed Pakistan’s core security concerns.
