The top leadership of the Pakistan Army on Thursday reaffirmed its commitment to taking “decisive action” against terrorist groups allegedly supported by India, emphasising that protecting Pakistani citizens remains the military’s foremost priority.

The 271st Corps Commanders’ Conference was held at General Headquarters in Rawalpindi and chaired by Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir. The army brass assessed the country’s internal and external security landscape amid tensions with India and evolving developments in the Middle East.

According to a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the forum offered Fateha for those who lost their lives in recent terror attacks and reaffirmed that the sacrifices of Pakistan’s Shuhada “will not go in vain.”

The military’s top brass vowed “decisive and holistic actions at all levels” against groups it identified as Indian-backed proxies, specifically naming “Fitna Al Khawarij and Fitna Al Hindustan.”

The Army Chief also referenced recent diplomatic engagements conducted jointly with the Prime Minister, including visits to Iran, Türkiye, Azerbaijan, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and the United States. These efforts, he said, aimed to present Pakistan’s perspective on regional and global matters.

Addressing India directly, Field Marshal Munir stated, “Invoking third parties in what is unmistakably a bilateral military confrontation reflects a disingenuous attempt at bloc politics aimed at falsely projecting India’s self-assigned role as a net security provider.”

The conference also discussed shifts in modern warfare and underscored the importance of developing self-reliant defense capabilities in light of increasing global militarization.

The COAS commended improved inter-services collaboration, with particular recognition given to the leadership of the Pakistan Navy and Air Force.

In his concluding comments, Field Marshal Munir expressed complete confidence in the Pakistan Army’s preparedness to counter the “complete threat spectrum.”
