| [DAWN] Major General Asif Ghafoor, the director general of the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), in an interview with Gulf News expressed confidence that the Pak Army has eliminated all terrorist havens from its soil. The spokesperson of the army's media wing pointed out that the "well-planned and executed military campaign" to rid the country of the menace of terrorism did not come cheap. "All this has come at a huge price. Besides cost in blood of over 750,000 Paks, there has been a loss of more than $123 billion to the national exchequer," the interview, published on Sunday, quoted him as saying. "Pakistain has fought a successful war against terrorism ‐ a war which entered Pakistain through the 2,611-km scantily manned Pak-Afghan border when US-led coalition forces started military operations in Afghanistan against Al Qaeda," he told the publication, reiterating, "There are no more organised sanctuaries; for elimination of remaining disorganised scanty residual presence of turbans, Operation Radd-ul-Fasaad, a largely intelligence-based operation, is in progress." |
