Summary

Pakistani security forces killed seven terrorists in an intelligence-based operation in the Eidak area of North Waziristan on October 2, 2026. The militants were identified as members of Fitna al-Khawarij, a term used for the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). The operation destroyed several militant hideouts and restricted the militants' operational capacity in the area. Some reports characterize the terrorists as India-backed or Indian-sponsored. The operation was part of the government's ongoing counterterrorism campaign under the Azm-e-Istehkam vision. Senior Pakistani officials including President Asif Ali Zardari, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, and Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi praised the security forces for the successful operation.
