ISLAMABAD: DG ISPR Major General Athar Abbas underlined that no talks will be held with the Taliban and reports of negotiations with the militants are totally false and fabricated.

While talking to host of journalists, Major General Athar Abbas made it clear that the operation against terrorists and militants is continuing in Malakand and its surrounding areas.

We have given ample opportunity to militants but they have challenged the writ of the state thus they have no option left now, he held.

He said that without the cooperation and support of the masses, the operation could never have been successful.

Undoubtedly, terrorists and militants are enemies of Islam and Pakistan, he added.—Online
