COIN SITREP
AFGHANISTAN-PAKISTAN INTERNATIONAL BORDER
KHYBER PAKTHUNKHWA, JUNE 2023
As June 2023 comes to an end, the Pakistan Joint Security Forces remain steadfastly and wholly committed to the Pakistani War Against Terrorism.
This unending national effort is nowadays led primarily by the Pakistan Army and specifically by its XI Corps (HQ: Peshawar, Commander: Lieutenant General Sardar Hassan Azhar Hayat) which covers the most threat-intensive region in our western border, and the overall highest insurgency-saturated area of Afghanistan, by protecting and watching both the Pakistani border and the inner motherland, throughout the entirety of the KPK province.
Here’s a brief monthly run-up of COIN operations of June 2023 conducted in the Pakistan Army XI Corps’ Area of Responsibility (AOR).
Terrorist Enemy Combatants killed in the XI Corps’ AOR for June 2023 is 47 targets eliminated, in 131 various counterinsurgency (COIN) intelligence-based operations (IBOs).
In this effort, at least 60 terrorist attacks, or an average of two per day, were preemptively foiled by these proactive measures, throughout Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, conducted by all elements of the Pakistan Joint Security Forces, which is a de-facto major integrated antiterrorist joint force, and such includes the Pakistan Army (XI Corps), Provincial/Federal Paramilitary (FC KPK), Provincial Law Enforcement Agencies (KPK Police and CTD), local gendarmerie (Levies), tribal peace committees, and the various member agencies of the Intelligence Community of Pakistan.
Together, they fight (with their lives on the line) day and night, against a horde of consistently well-supplied and well-armed foreign terrorist threats.
