Pakistan hits 'terrorist centers' in Iran after Tehran's airstrikes in Balochistan
Islamabad/UNI: Pakistani security forces have struck "terrorist centers" in Iran with precision, a security official told Xinhua on Thursday morning.
Sources from Pakistan's armed forces said that all targets were hit precisely.
"We hit the confirmed terrorists. In our view all terrorists are our targets irrespective of race, ethnicity, religion, or sect," added the security official.
Sources from the Pakistani government told Xinhua that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will issue a statement about the recent development.
Iran on Tuesday claimed it conducted missile and drone attacks that destroyed two strongholds of the Sunni Balochi terror group Jaish al-Adl in the border town of Panjgur in Balochistan.
"Two key strongholds of the Jaysh al-Dhulm (Jeysh al-Adl) terrorist group in Pakistan have been obliterated through precision missile and drone strikes," reported Iran's Tasnim News Agency.
Iran's action was in response to the terror group's alleged attack at a police station in Sistan and Balouchestan province’s city of Rask, southeast of Iran, which resulted in the death of 11 Iranian Police forces.
