Pakistan Military Attacks Iran. On Thursday, Pakistan conducted strikes on “terrorist hideouts” in Iran, following a warning to Tehran about the “serious consequences” of its attack on the Balochi group Jaish al-Adl’s headquarters within Pakistani territory which leads Pakistan Military Attacks Iran.
The intelligence-based operation code-named “Marg Bar Sarmachar” resulted in the deaths of “several terrorists,” as stated by Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry. Contrarily, Iranian media confirmed the attack and reported seven casualties, including four children, in the incident. The retaliatory strikes came days after Iran’s attack on Tuesday in Pakistani Balochistan in which two children were killed.
“This morning Pakistan undertook a series of highly coordinated and specifically targeted precision military strikes against terrorist hideouts in Siestan-o-Baluchistan province of Iran,” Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry said in an official statement.
Calling Iran a “Brother Islamic Country” Islamabad said that the action was a “manifestation of Pakistan’s unflinching resolve” to protect and defend its national security against all threats.
“The sole objective of today’s act was in pursuit of Pakistan’s own security and national interest which is paramount and cannot be compromised,” the Ministry said, adding that Islamabad “fully respects” Iran’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
“Over the last several years, in our engagements with Iran, Pakistan has consistently shared its serious concerns about the safe havens and sanctuaries enjoyed by Pakistani origin terrorists calling themselves ‘Sarmachars’ on the ungoverned spaces inside Iran,” the statement read further.
