“Everything off the table, if Afghan Taliban do not cooperate on TTP” Pakistan’s special representative on Afghanistan Ambassador Sadiq Khan @AmbassadorSadiq while speaking at a seminar organised by @IPRI_Pak said that TTP is a big challenge for us, it cannot be tolerated, because our young boys are being martyred every day, it has become so common in certain areas. It would be criminal to ignore that. Afghanistan has to work with us on this, if they are not working with us then all deals are off, and there can be no further progress on anything. Pakistan can be very helpful to Afghanistan, if we could stop terrorism coming from the other side of the border. I will be honest and pragmatic about it, we have an issue in Pakistan, that is one part. But people coming from Afghanistan is also an issue that has to be stopped. The solution is not necessarily killing people, the solution is not necessarily arresting people and handing them over to Pakistan. The solution is restraining it, the solution is containing them on which I think no one should have any objection.

*ISPR* *Rawalpindi, 7 April 2025*: On night 6/7 April 2025, an intelligence based operation was conducted by Security Forces in general area Takwara, Dera Ismail Khan District on reported presence of khwarij. During conduct of the operation, own troops effectively engaged the khwarij location and after an intense fire exchange, nine khwarij including HVT, Kharji Ring leader Shireen were sent to hell. Weapons and ammunition were also recovered from the killed khwarij. Kharji Ring leader Shireen was highly wanted by the Law Enforcement Agencies due to his involvement in numerous terrorist activities, and besides being involved in target killing of numerous innocent civilians, was also responsible for Shahadat of Captain Hasnain Akhtar, Shaheed on 20 March 2025. Today’s operation has avenged the heinous act and has brought the main perpetrator to justice. Sanitization operation is being conducted to eliminate any other Kharji found in the area, as the security forces of Pakistan are determined to wipe out the menace of terrorism from the country.
