[GEO.TV] Security forces have eliminated as many as 27 Lions of Islam during an intelligence-based operation in remote district of Balochistan...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it... , the military's media wing said on Monday. The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement that on January 12 security forces conducted the IBO in Kacchi district of Balochistan, on reported presence of Lions of Islam in the area. During the conduct of operation, troops "stealthily surrounded & effectively engaged the terrosits' location, and after an intense fire exchange, twenty seven Lions of Islam were sent to hell". Multiple hideouts, including caches of arms, ammunition and explosives, were also destroyed during the operation, the ISPR added. The Lions of Islam were involved in numerous terrorist activities against the security forces as well as innocent civilians and were highly wanted by the law enforcement agencies, as per the ISPR. "Security forces of Pakistain, in step with the nation, remain determined to thwart attempts at sabotaging peace, stability and progress of Balochistan." The nation has been reeling under rising  ...mindless ferocity in a turban...rulers returned to power in Afghanistan in 2021, particularly in the bordering provinces of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. The year 2024 turned out to be the deadliest for Pakistain's civil and military security forces in a decade with at least 685 fatalities and 444 terror attacks, according to ''CRSS Annual Security Report 2024'' issued by Centre for Security and Strategic Studies.
