In a statement, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said, “Major Muhammad Anwar Kakar Shaheed, a brave son of #Balochistan, was martyred today during a cowardly attack by #India proxy Fitna al-Hindustan in Balochistan.”
It said, “Major Muhammad Anwar Kakar belonged to the Pishin district of Balochistan. At the time, he was deployed in Balochistan. Major Muhammad Anwar Kakar successfully carried out several critical operations against Fitna al-Hindustan. He also played a significant role in the ongoing information warfare in Balochistan. He is survived by his parents, wife, and three sons.”
“India, our eternal enemy, has already tasted disgraceful defeat in direct confrontations with Pakistan and now, India is attacking Pakistan through funding terrorist groups like Fitna-tul-Hindustan, but even on this front, India will face defeat, and its evil ambitions will fail,” the ISPR reaffirmed the resolve.
