PANJGUR: A deadly Panjgur clash erupted overnight between Frontier Corps (FC) Balochistan South and a group of militants in the Gwargo area. The confrontation took place in a rugged border zone of Panjgur district.
Security sources confirmed that the firefight began on the night of August 1. Troops from the 91 Wing were already on high alert. This heightened state of readiness followed intelligence inputs about the movement of terrorists near the remote border region.
Acting on that critical intel, FC soldiers launched an immediate response. A fierce gun battle followed. In the intense Panjgur clash, 11 terrorists were killed on the spot.
However, the price of bravery was high. Two soldiers of FC Balochistan South embraced martyrdom during the encounter. Their sacrifice stands as a reminder of the constant danger faced by forces on the frontline.
The Army has now initiated a full-scale clearance operation in and around the area of the clash. Troops are combing through the terrain to ensure no surviving militants escape or regroup. The aim is to remove all remaining threats and block any further infiltration.
This latest Panjgur clash highlights the security challenges near Pakistan’s southwestern border. It also reflects the swift and decisive response of the armed forces when faced with terror threats.
Such incidents remind the nation of the ongoing fight against militancy. Every battle, like the Panjgur clash, underscores the courage of those who protect the homeland.
As the operation in Panjgur continues, officials remain confident that any pockets of resistance will be eliminated. The security forces stand firm in their mission to secure the region and defend against any future militant aggression.
