Meanwhile, the former caretaker Balochistan information minister, in a post on X, said, “Pakistan has avenged the blood of martyrs and targeted the safe havens of terrorists near the border.”
He said, “If there is any terror attack in Pakistan, we will conduct a strong attack inside Afghanistan. Remember, the life of a Pakistani is more valuable for us than the entire Afghanistan.”
Former caretaker foreign minister Jalil Abbas Jilani, in a post on X, said,” fighting the evil forces of terror originating from Afghanistan”. “This cowardly terror attack will be avenged.”
