KOHLU: According to the Inter Services Public Relations, the Frontier Corps (FC) and security forces conducted an operation in Peshi area in Kahan, Balochistan on Sunday.
Large amounts of arms and ammunition have been recovered from banned organization Balochistan Liberation Army’s (BLA).
The weapons included 70 rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) shell and missile-launchers, 12 rocket fuses and mortar bombs, five bundle-detonating cards, thousands of rounds of different types and various destructive materials as well.
20 rockets and 14 fuses were also found at the site.
Frontier Corps Inspector General Major General Nadeem Anjum himself supervised the operation.
Balochistan, Pakistan’s largest province in terms of land area has been plagued by an insurgency and sectarian killings for several years now. However, security forces have conducted effective operations across the province cracking down on militants.
This has led to a considerable drop in militancy in the province but scattered attacks are still reported at times.
Security forces have since then intensified intelligence-based and combing operations in the province in an effort to establish peace.
