Maryam Nawaz Praises Pakistan Army For Defeating Afghan Taliban

On February 26, 2026, Pakistan's military operations against Afghan Taliban forces reached a critical juncture with the launch of 'Operation Ghazab Lil Haqq.' This operation aims to target militant hideouts along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, responding to a surge in cross-border attacks. Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif commended the armed forces for their decisive actions, stating, "The defense of Pakistan will never be compromised," highlighting the military's commitment to national security. Reports indicate that the Pakistan Army's operations have led to significant disruptions in Taliban activities, with many fighters reportedly fleeing the Torkham border area due to increased military pressure, as noted by StartupPakistan, which stated, "The advance has created panic among insurgent groups, forcing many to abandon their positions along the key border crossing."
