Cross-Border Terrorism to Be Crushed with Full Might of State: Field Marshal Munir

He said terrorist sanctuaries and facilitators will be dismantled as Pakistan cites hostile intelligence networks and Afghan territory in recent attacks.

  • On Wednesday, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir addressed graduating officers at the National Defence University in Islamabad, vowing to crush cross-border terrorism and completely dismantle terrorist sanctuaries and their facilitators.
  • Munir criticized the Afghan Taliban regime for providing sanctuary to militants, alleging that terrorist networks operate under hostile intelligence agencies' tutelage to undermine Pakistan's internal security and economic prosperity.
  • Eleven soldiers were martyred and 14 terrorists killed in a recent Balochistan convoy attack, while officials allege Afghan nationals increasingly infiltrate TTP ranks and suicide attack operations.
  • The Field Marshal expressed "full confidence in the professionalism, morale and operational readiness of the battle-hardened armed forces of Pakistan," urging graduating officers to prioritize integrity and selfless service.
  • Pakistan Armed Forces are recalibrating employment strategies to address evolving warfare, with Munir emphasizing that wars are won through "faith, unity and discipline" rather than political rhetoric or sloganeering.
