**HarZaviya summary** — how 18 outlets covered this, generated automatically from their headlines and excerpts:

> Most outlets reported that security forces killed 10 terrorists, including a woman, during operations in Gwadar after attempts to carry out attacks near the Gabd Border Crossing and in Gwadar city. A majority also mentioned the death of one civilian and damage to vehicles. The Express Tribune and Daily Pakistan explicitly referred to the terrorists as "India-sponsored," while other outlets either omitted this descriptor or used it only in passing. Some, like Geo News and Dunya News, framed the operation as foiling "terror designs" or attempts to "undermine the province’s development," while others, like 24 News HD and BOL News, used more neutral language such as "clearance operations."
