**QUETTA & INTERIOR BALOCHISTAN (Daily Qudrat):** Security forces in Balochistan have launched major operations against terrorists, resulting in several key eliminations, arrests, and retaliatory attacks across multiple districts.

According to official sources, **six terrorists belonging to a banned outfit** were killed during an **intelligence-based operation in Kachhi district**. Those killed were identified as **Bashir Kurd, Aman Gajki, Saddam Dashti, Niaz Langov, Hidayat Marri, and Adil Kurd** — all involved in deadly attacks on police and Levies stations in **Mastung and Bhag Nari**, including the **murder of SHO Bhag Nari, martyr Ltuf Ali Khosa**, as well as an assault on the National Bank.

In **Panjgur’s Essa area**, the **Frontier Corps (FC)** arrested a terrorist identified as **Qasim, son of Jama Khan**, a resident of **Tasp**. During the raid, he allegedly used his niece **Nazia** as a human shield; however, when she refused to comply, the terrorists injured her.

Meanwhile, terrorists **opened fire on a construction company’s crushing plant** along the **Kohlu–Barkhan highway**, resulting in the **martyrdom of a Levies official** and injuries to **two others**. In **Dera Murad Jamali**, unidentified attackers **hurled a grenade at a National Highway Police office**, destroying the main gate and injuring a civilian, **Muhammad Ramzan**.

In Karachi’s Aga Khan Hospital, **Constable Muhammad Azeem Khosa**, nephew of martyred SHO **Ltuf Ali Khosa**, succumbed to injuries sustained during the earlier **Bhag Nari police station attack**.

Separately, civilian casualties from violent incidents continue to rise across the province.

Targeted killings were also reported in several districts: in **Usta Muhammad**, unknown assailants shot dead **Zafarullah son of Muhammad Gul Magsi** over an old enmity near the High School Bridge.
