At a checkpoint in Kalat-Quetta, forces stopped and searched a container, discovering smuggled goods including 400 tires, 250 cloth sacks, 500 blankets, as well as weapons and ammunition.
In a separate operation conducted between June 9 and July 6 in the Gwadar-Turbat region, authorities confiscated 42 kg of ice meth and other narcotics. Additional seized items included gutka, cigarettes, betel nut, and nine goats.
