The year 2018 saw a remarkable reduction of 45pc in militant attacks in Pakistan, Dawn reported on January 2 quoting a study conducted by Pakistan Institute for Conflict and Security Studies (PICSS). The PICSS study showed that the security situation significantly improved in the year as the number of attacks, resultant deaths as well as injuries declined by 45pc, 37pc and 49pc, respectively, compared to 2017. The number of suicide attacks also declined. According to a press release, militants carried out 229 attacks in different provinces in which 577 people were killed - 356 civilians, 152 security forces personnel and 67 militants. Besides, 959 people were injured, including 693 civilians and 261 security personnel. But the ratio of security forces’ casualties per attack significantly increased in 2018 compared to 2017. A consistent decline in militant attacks was noticed since the launch of Operation Zarb-i-Azb (‘Sword of the Prophet’, also ‘sharp and cutting’) in June 2014. The average militant attacks per month declined from 35 in 2017 to 19 in 2018. In 2014, it was 134 which dropped to 59 in 2015 and 42 in 2016. Average militant attacks per month decreased from 35 in 2017 to 19 in 2018, report says. Balochistan remained the most troubled province where the highest number of militant attacks (99), highest number of deaths (354) and highest number of injured (570) were recorded. Of the total attacks in the country, 61pc of the deaths and 59pc of the injuries took place in Balochistan. The second highest number of attacks (65) was recorded in the erstwhile FATA in which 107 people were killed and 150 injured. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, 40 attacks were recorded in which 72 people were killed and 174 injured. As many as 14 attacks were reported from Sindh in which 21 people were killed and 20 injured. Punjab saw six militant attacks in which 18 people were killed and 42 injured. More footprints of the militants were observed in Gilgit-Baltistan than the previous years as four militant attacks were recorded in the area during the year in which five people were killed and three injured. At least 12 schools, mostly of girls, were destroyed in a single night in the Diamer District. In 2017, 23 suicide attacks had been recorded in the country. However, the number declined to 18 in 2018 in which 267 people were killed and 460 injured.

Sindh Police's Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) have developed a technical team under its anti-terror wing that has started monitoring all digital platforms amid their growing use for “promotion of ideology of hatred, anti-state activism and militancy”, a senior official said on January 17, reports The Dawn. The fresh development from the Sindh Police came after a series of steps announced by the federal government and institutions, including Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) and Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), where “the infiltration of anti-state elements and promoters of different ideologies which cannot be dubbed as pro-nationalism” have sparked concerns, necessitating immediate and strong measures. The FIA a few months ago allowed establishing of 15 cybercrime reporting centres in the country. Five of the centres will be opened in Punjab, three each in Sindh and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), two in Balochistan and one each in Islamabad and Gilgit-Baltistan. The decision was taken in accordance with Section 51 of the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act 2015, which grants the government powers to take all necessary measures for the prevention of cybercrime.

Meanwhile, Darra Adam Khel arms manufacturers are seeking legal status to continue over a century old trade, reports The Express Tribune. A delegation of arms dealers from Darra Adam Khel called on KP Governor Shah Farman on March 29 and discussed the situation arising after the merger process. The end of distinct status for tribal and frontier regions has brought laws and courts to the area, whereby gun manufacturing will become subjected to mandatory licence and legal procedures. The arms manufacturers told the governor that they were willing to get their industry registered with relevant authorities. They suggested forming a committee to guide the tribesmen in the process of legalising their arms trade.

A mob led by Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM) leaders and National Assembly Members (MNA) Mohsin Javed (Dawar) and Ali Wazir assaulted Kharqamar checkpost in Boya area of North Waziristan District in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on the morning of May 26, resulting the clash in which three civilians were killed and five Army soldiers sustained injuries, reports Daily Times. A statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said “Troops at the checkpost exercised maximum restraint in the face of provocation and direct firing on the post. Due to firing of the group, five army soldiers got injured. In exchange of fire, three individuals who attacked the post lost their lives and 10 got injured. All injured have been evacuated to army hospital for treatment,” the ISPR stated, adding that Ali Wazir along with eight individuals has been arrested, while Mohsin Dawar is at large after inciting the crowd.

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Government has decided to raise 34 new units of Rapid Response Force (RRF) to fill the void created by the departure of the several units of the security forces previously deployed in various parts of the Province, Dawn reported on October 21. It will cost PKR 505 million to set up 34 new units of RRF, a standby force of highly trained Police units to react and respond in events of organised armed assault by terrorists or in a hostage situation. The force was formed in April 2014. A summary for raising the new units, submitted to the Chief Minister (CM), states that pull-out of Security Forces (SFs) earlier deployed in the Province and moving to the eastern border created void, which needs to be filled up on urgent basis. PKR 505 million will be spent on setting up new units owing to developing security situation in the Province. In this regard, a meeting on law and order was held earlier in August this year, wherein CM Mahmood Khan approved raising of about 34 units of RRF. It said that the new units would be in addition to the existing 28 units of the force. The summary said that to raise 34 new units, it would require to recruit of 1,462 personnel. Of this, there would be 1,088 constables, 102 head constables, 68 assistant sub-inspectors, 31 sub-inspectors and 170 drivers. It said that RRF was initially established with 24 units in 11 most vulnerable districts of the province from the existing Elite Force back in April 2014. A unit of RRF comprises a sub-inspector, an assistant sub-inspector, four head constables and 40 constables. Each member of the unit is equipped with individual arms and ammunition including assault rifle, side arm, protective gear, individual night vision device, handset with accessories and searchlight. In addition to this, each unit is also equipped with additional logistics, such as rocket propelled grenades, sniper rifles, HMGs, gas guns, portable ladders and other tools for clearance and breaching operations. The summary said that later those units were increased from 24 to 28 to meet the challenge of militancy and functioning throughout the province.
