Overview
- On Saturday June 27 a gun attack on a Pakistan Rangers (Sindh) camp in Karachi was repelled; three attackers were killed, three Rangers were killed, four personnel were wounded and one wounded Afghan militant was taken into custody.
- Security officials and media reports say the captured militant told interrogators he trained in Jalalabad and claimed membership of Jamaat al‑Ahrar, a statement the government is using to develop leads but that remains subject to independent verification.
- Federal and military spokespeople announced clearance operations in Karachi and cross‑border actions under 'Operation Ghazab ul Haq,' and officials reported that related strikes on border‑area targets killed 29 militants.
- Separately, police submitted the Gul Plaza challan after forensic tests found no explosive material and ruled the blaze accidental; the file names market‑union officials and a shopkeeper and his son as accused in a fire that killed 72 people and cites closed gates and union failures.
- Government business has continued alongside the security response: the president signed an OGRA amendment ordinance, Punjab ordered mandatory digital PERA requisitions and activation of an 'Ask PERA' portal, and the Islamabad High Court has adjourned final arguments in the £190 million appeal.
