ISLAMABAD: Defense Minister Khawaja Asif has hinted at carrying out operations inside Afghanistan in pursuit of terrorists, saying that if we have to go to any country in pursuit of enemies of our existence, we will go.
Speaking in a TV programme, the Defence Minister said the Afghan government was sponsoring TTP terrorists.
Khawaja Asif said that if we have to go to any country chasing those against our existence, we will not hesitate to do so.
The defence minister alleged that during the tenure of PTI founder Imran Khan, the TTP was brought back so that a private militia could be established. The National Action Plan is already in place, it is only being revived.
In addition, Federal Minister Mosaddeq Malik said that the government had decided to conduct an operation to root out terrorism.
He said that the country is currently in a state of war. The soldiers of security forces are being martyred. Whether it is a targeted operation or war, the elimination of terrorists has been decided, he added.
