Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir chaired the 270th Corps Commanders’ Conference (CCC) at General Headquarters in Rawalpindi. The meeting included a comprehensive review of the prevailing internal and external security environment, with particular emphasis on the successful conclusion of Operation Bunyanum Marsoos, a decisive chapter of Marka-e-Haq.
“The forum lauded the professionalism, synergy, courage, and resilience of Pakistan’s Armed Forces and the unwavering support of the nation, which together repelled aggression with exemplary precision and resolve,” the ISPR statement said.
The statement added that the forum deliberated in depth on the threat posed by India-backed terrorist proxies operating in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
“It was observed that following its military failure in the wake of the Pahalgam incident, India—so-called and self-claimed victim of terrorism but actually a perpetrator and epicentre of regional instability—has escalated its use of covert means, employing non-state actors to pursue its destabilisation agenda,” it said.
The forum resolved that Pakistan will never allow its peace to be compromised by externally sponsored terrorism.
“The Armed Forces, in close synergy with intelligence and law enforcement agencies, will pursue all proxies and facilitators of terrorism with unrelenting resolve. These hostile elements, trained and financed to incite chaos and fear, will be dismantled and decimated with the full force of national will and institutional strength,” the ISPR added.
Field Marshal Asim Munir commended the high morale, operational readiness, and professionalism of all ranks, as well as the steadfast support of the Pakistani nation.
He emphasised the blessings of Almighty Allah in guiding national efforts and directed all commanders to maintain a heightened state of vigilance and preparedness to address evolving threats across the spectrum.
In his concluding remarks, the Field Marshal reaffirmed the Pakistan Army’s pivotal role in ensuring internal stability and securing national frontiers. He expressed profound appreciation for the enduring support of the people of Pakistan.
“The people of Pakistan are our greatest strength. We remain committed to their trust and expectations in our shared struggle against any foreign aggression, terrorism, and extremism,” Field Marshal Munir said while addressing participants of the CCC.
According to the ISPR, the conference noted that history would recall with pride Pakistan’s swift and resolute defensive posture, which neutralised a grave threat within hours of its emergence. Pakistan responded with strategic restraint and operational clarity, upholding both deterrence and moral authority.
The statement further said that the CCC reaffirmed Pakistan’s unyielding resolve to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity against any act of aggression or misadventure.
Reiterating Pakistan’s strategic stance, the forum categorically rejected any attempts to exert pressure through force or threats and declared, “No one can coerce Pakistan through the use or threat of force. The nation will take all measures necessary to safeguard its vital interests.”
The statement said a strategic overview of the regional environment was also undertaken, including the security posture along the Line of Control (LoC), the Working Boundary, and the Eastern Border, in light of the recent Pakistan-India confrontation.
The forum expressed deep concern over persistent human rights abuses in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK). It condemned these actions as contributing to organic backlash and perpetuating cycles of violence.
The ISPR statement said the CCC underscored the urgent need for international attention and intervention to prevent further deterioration of peace and security in South Asia.
“The forum reiterated full diplomatic, political, moral, and humanitarian support for Kashmiri brothers and sisters and their just resistance for the right of self-determination,” it read.
The forum commenced with Fateha for the martyrs of Operation Bunyanum Marsoos and the heinous terrorist attack in Khuzdar, Balochistan—an atrocity perpetrated through India-sponsored proxies—which resulted in the loss of four innocent children and two adults.
“The forum unequivocally condemned this barbaric act, noting its deliberate targeting of non-combatants, particularly children, as a reprehensible violation of all norms of humanity and international conduct,” the statement said.
It also paid solemn tribute to all martyrs of Marka-e-Haq who laid down their lives in defence of the nation during India’s unprovoked aggression.
“It reaffirmed that the sacred blood of the Shuhada shall not go in vain and that the safety and security of the people of Pakistan will continue to be the foremost priority of the Armed Forces,” the ISPR statement added.
The forum extended its felicitations to the Army Chief on his conferment as Field Marshal, acknowledging his strategic foresight, resolute leadership, and enduring contributions to national defence.
According to the ISPR, the forum acknowledged Pakistan’s media and information warriors who stood united with the State against the Indian propaganda onslaught, fake news, and war hysteria, accurately portraying facts and figures to foster public trust and counter misinformation.
The forum also wholeheartedly recognised the spirit and dynamic contributions of Pakistani youth, whose passion and patriotism rallied the national spirit and strengthened the projection of the national narrative.
“The forum saluted the political leadership for their foresight in steering the nation during Marka-e-Haq with utmost clarity, conviction, and resolve,” the statement concluded.
The conference ended with Field Marshal Asim Munir expressing full confidence in the operational capability, preparedness, and unwavering morale of all formations and institutions entrusted with the defence of the country.
