Pakistan says it carried out ground operation, strikes along Afghan border, killing 29 militants

Pakistan’s security forces claim a combined ground and air operation along the Afghan border resulted in the deaths of 29 militants. The operation, confirmed by multiple outlets, was described as targeting terrorist elements in the region. Authorities cited coordinated strikes as part of the effort, with the country’s information minister directly attributing the casualties to the military action.

Coverage from **10TV, Dawn, CBS News, Reuters, and AP News** uniformly reports the official Pakistani statement, with no independent verification of the militant count or operation scope. The timing follows persistent cross-border security concerns between the two nations. No Afghan government response or acknowledgment of casualties has been reported.

Watch for potential Afghan retaliation or diplomatic statements, as well as reactions from regional powers like India and China, which have historically influenced border dynamics. Coverage may also focus on whether this escalation signals broader instability in the Afghanistan-Pakistan border region.
