During the operation, FC personnel Noman Farid made the ultimate sacrifice, embracing martyrdom while defending against the assailants.

Subsequently, a joint clearance operation involving Pakistan Navy, Frontier Corps, and local police was launched to sweep the vicinity for any remaining threats and terrorists.

This incident follows a recent attack by the BLA on the residential complex of Gwadar Port Authority on March 20, resulting in the martyrdom of two security personnel. In response, security forces eliminated eight terrorists in retaliatory action.
