Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) and Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) of Pakistan, visited Quetta on February 4, 2026, to assess the security operations in Balochistan following recent terrorist attacks. According to The Frontier Post, Munir was briefed on the security environment and the measures taken to counter threats posed by Indian-backed militants, specifically those associated with the group Fitna al Hindustan. The military's response, described as 'swift and aggressive,' successfully thwarted attempts to destabilize the region. Munir emphasized that 'no terrorist or their facilitator would be spared,' underscoring a zero-tolerance policy towards terrorism (The Frontier Post, Pakistan Today).
