Excerpts from Noor Wali Mehsud’s Instructions
•“Communicate this message to all Mujahideen: whether simple or internet-enabled, no one is allowed to use mobile phones anymore.”
•“When necessary, use the phone briefly and turn it off immediately.”
•“We are under scrutiny, and close surveillance is being conducted on us.”
•“No unnecessary mobile usage is permitted.”
These instructions follow a series of successful counterterrorism operations, which have led to significant casualties among the group’s ranks.
Increased Security Pressure on Terrorist Networks
Counterterrorism Operations Intensify
Defense analysts confirm that ongoing military operations are successfully targeting terrorist groups, forcing their leadership to impose stringent security measures.
•“Frequent fatalities among Fitna-al-Khawarij operatives indicate effective intelligence-led operations,” analysts noted.
•“The mobile phone ban suggests an attempt to prevent further tracking and interception of communication.”
Such measures highlight the pressure these groups face as security forces tighten their grip on terrorist networks across the region.

Implications of the Mobile Phone Ban
1.Communication Disruption: Limiting mobile usage may hinder the group’s ability to coordinate attacks effectively.
2.Heightened Security Awareness: The move demonstrates that the group is increasingly aware of its vulnerability to modern surveillance tactics.
3.Operational Limitations: Reduced mobility and communication are likely to weaken the group’s operational capacity.
Final Thoughts
The recent ban on mobile phone usage by Fitna-al-Khawarij’s leadership underscores the effectiveness of ongoing security operations. As terrorist groups struggle to adapt to heightened surveillance, security forces continue to dismantle their communication networks and disrupt their activities.
