Islamabad: The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has refuted the statement and claims of the Afghan Taliban regime about targeting Daesh Khorasan in border areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, using rudimentary drones. In a statement, the Information Ministry termed these claims as false as usual.

According to Radio Pakistan, the statement further said that the Afghan Taliban regime, through their various propaganda mouthpieces and official statements, are claiming to have targeted Daesh Khorasan in border areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, using rudimentary drones. The Information Ministry asserted that terrorist camps, including that of Daesh and more than two dozen other terrorist organizations, are factually located, run, and patronized from inside the territories under the control of the Afghan Taliban regime.

In an effort to cover their patronization of terror activities waged in neighboring countries and the region, including those from Daesh, Fitna al-Khawarij, Fitna al-Hindustan, and others, the Taliban regime is used to issuing such fake and nefarious statements. The Information Minister further stated that, in fact, one rudimentary drone of the Taliban regime intruded into Pakistan airspace near the Shinko area of Khyber. It was immediately identified and neutralized by the alert Air Defence System of the Pakistan Air Force.
