Security sources stated that the operation, described as part of ongoing countermeasures, resulted in the destruction of the depot. Officials asserted that retaliatory actions were taken in response to what they described as unprovoked activity along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
The military further claimed that operations under the initiative “Operation Ghazb al-Haq” are continuing, with authorities stating that hostile forces have faced setbacks across multiple fronts. No independent verification of the claims has been provided, and Afghan authorities have not issued an immediate response.
