The military’s media wing on Sunday claimed to have recovered a cache of weapons from an alleged terrorist hideout in Kohlu District of Balochistan.

According to a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations, an intelligence-based operation (IBO) was conducted in Sken Nullah Darango, located some 55km off Kahan area in Kohlu District, on the alleged hideouts of Balochistan Liberation Army.

“A large cache of weapons, ammunition, and explosives including guns, rocket launchers, anti-personal mines, detonators and communication equipment recovered from the hideout,” read the ISPR statement.

The ISPR, however, did not release detail about any arrests being made from the alleged terrorist hideout.

In an earlier statement, the military’s media wing had claimed to conduct IBOs in Mastung during the past two days in which 12 suspected terrorists were reportedly killed.

The suspects were hiding inside a cave for “planning, coordination, and execution of terrorist activities in Baluchistan”, the ISPR had claimed.
