Misleading propaganda by foreign media about the killing of Jaish-ul-Adl commander by Iranian forces on Pakistani soil.
(By Mehmood Baloch)

Social media and some foreign media are spreading false propaganda that Iranian forces have killed a Jaish-ul-Adl commander on Pakistani soil; sources. No such incident happened on Pakistani soil; sources.

Sources said that cross-firing by smuggler groups is creating a false narrative by portraying an incident as a false flag operation.

A few Indian and Iran-backed social media handlers are falsely claiming the killing of Jaish-ul-Adl’s so-called commander Haji Ismail Shah Bakhsh. Ismail Shah Bakhsh is actually an Iranian citizen who is associated with the business of Kairava Kash. This person has no connection with any militant group. Ismail Shah Bakhsh is a fugitive and wanted by Iranian authorities. His brother was also killed by Iranian forces about a year ago. On February 22, 2024, Haji Ismail was allegedly involved in a firing incident between his unidentified friend and BLF elements.

According to reliable sources, this incident took place during a clash between two smugglers, but Indian and Iranian media have attributed it to Iranian forces operating inside Pakistan, which is nothing but a complete lie.

It is pertinent to highlight that breaching Pakistan border is close to impossible as Pakistan’s security forces maintain an active and vigilant security to monitor, and are equipped with advanced technology and operate around the clock to prevent unauthorized crossing. Pakistan’s Armed forces, in the past, have responded robustly and took swift action against both Iran and India when attempts were made to breach the Pakistani border. Let’s be very clear that deterrence created by Pakistan ensures that neither country is likely to attempt such an incursion ever again.

On the one hand, the Sikh farmers of Indian Punjab are demanding separation from India. Indian media started spreading lies about Pakistan to hide this movement of farmers.

On the other hand, various false stories are being fabricated to erase the pain of operation Margburg Saramchars; sources.
