Violence linked to foreign incidents will not be tolerated in Pakistan: CDF Munir

  • On Thursday, Field Marshal Asim Munir reiterated Pakistan’s resolve to eliminate terrorists using precise, intelligence-based operations while announcing a temporary pause in Operation Ghazab lil-Haq from midnight March 18-19 to midnight March 23-24.
  • Launched on the night of Feb 26, Operation Ghazab lil-Haq began after cross-border firing by the Afghan Taliban, with the CDF urging them to stop using Afghan soil for terrorism against Pakistan.
  • Officials reported 707 militants killed, over 938 injured, 255 posts destroyed, and 237 tanks, armoured vehicles and artillery guns destroyed during the military operation.
  • Pakistan framed the pause as a gesture in good faith, adding it would resume immediately if any cross-border attack, drone strike or terrorist incident occurs while participants supported law enforcement agencies.
  • Munir emphasised Pakistan’s pro‑active diplomacy to seek regional de‑escalation, with religious leaders expressing a desire for peace and condemning violence, during Rawalpindi interactions.
