Another attempt to terrorist attack occurred in Pakistan unfortunately on May 11. Three militants tried to carry out a terrorist attack targeting the Pearl Continental Hotel in Gwadar, but has been successfully foiled by the Pakistani military and security forces.
All the terrorists were killed by Pakistan military and security forces on the spot, preventing the implementation of the terror attack plan and avoiding heavy casualties and property losses.
However, during the anti-terrorist operation, one Pakistani soldier martyred and another four soldiers got injured. We would like to express our deepest condolences to the Pakistani soldiers who have made huge sacrifices in the anti-terrorist operations and highly appreciate the contributions by the Pakistani military and security forces to the fight against terrorism.
It is also well remembered that, last November, the Pakistani law enforcement forces also successfully defeated the terrorist plot against the Chinese Consulate General in Karachi.
In fact, in recent years, the Pakistani military and security forces have successively detected many terrorist plots and captured a considerable number of terrorist suspects, thus having throttled many serious terrorist attacks.
This shows that the Pakistani military and security forces are well-trained and dedicated. They are brave and experienced at fighting terrorism for the security of the country and the safety of the civilians in Pakistan.
However, Pakistan has firm position and determination, clear policies, vigorous measures and actions on anti-terrorism. Pakistan has made great contributions to fighting against terrorism and is an important anti-terror force in both the region and the world, which should be highly appreciated by the international community.
