One Soldier Martyred, 12 Terrorists Killed as Security Forces Foil Infiltration Attempt in Kurram: ISPR
The army said Afghan Taliban posts fired in support, and a sanitisation operation is underway after weapons and ammunition were recovered.
- On Sunday, October 11, 2026, security forces killed 12 militants during an infiltration attempt along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border in Kurram district; Naib Subedar Hidayat Aman, 40, was martyred during the intense exchange of fire.
- The Inter-Services Public Relations stated the incident vindicated Pakistan's stance that the Afghan Taliban regime consistently fails to honor international counter-terrorism obligations by facilitating cross-border terrorism from Afghan soil.
- President Asif Ali Zardari paid tribute to Aman for "laying down his life in defence of the homeland," while Interior Minister Naqvi stated the nation takes pride in the security forces' professional capabilities.
- A sanitization operation is underway to eliminate remaining militants, with ongoing counter-terrorism efforts operating under the Azm-e-Istehkam vision approved by the Federal Apex Committee.
- Militant activity has surged for the third consecutive month, with Pakistan recording 225 attacks in September 2026, a 13% increase from August since the Afghan Taliban returned to power in 2021.
