Pakistani security forces have killed 73 militants during intensified operations across Balochistan province over the past four days. The military reported that 56 militants were neutralized in the Shaban region, while another 17 were killed in Nushki and Mand. These border regions near Iran and Afghanistan have seen a recent surge in military activity and armed clashes. Following intense firefights, troops successfully cleared numerous militant hideouts that intelligence services identified as threats to the local population. During the sweep, authorities also seized a massive cache of weapons, ammunition, and explosives.
