Pakistan Senate Condemns Taliban Aggression, Launches Operation Ghazab Lil Haq

On February 27, 2026, the Senate of Pakistan unanimously passed a resolution condemning the Afghan Taliban for what it termed 'unprovoked aggression' against Pakistan. The resolution, moved by PPP Parliamentary Leader Sherry Rehman, emphasized that any challenge to Pakistan's sovereignty would be met with a 'firm, proportionate, and decisive response.' The Senate noted that Pakistan has hosted millions of Afghan nationals and has made significant sacrifices for regional stability, yet continues to face hostility from Afghanistan. The resolution called for the Taliban to cease all hostile actions and adhere to international obligations. Following this, Pakistan's security forces launched 'Operation Ghazab Lil Haq,' resulting in the deaths of at least 133 Taliban fighters and the destruction of 27 posts, as reported by the Tribune Latest. Senator Rana Sanaullah affirmed national unity in support of the military, stating, 'Today’s message is that the whole nation stands with the armed forces.'
