Balochistan Liberation Army Claims Deadly Attack on Pakistani Military Convoy

A suicide bombing and gunfire assault in Noshki district killed at least five and injured ten, escalating tensions in the resource-rich region.

The attack targeted a convoy of buses carrying security personnel in Balochistan's Noshki district, killing five, including three soldiers, and wounding ten others.
The Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) claimed responsibility for the attack, describing it as a 'Fidayee' operation involving a suicide car bombing and subsequent gunfire.
The incident comes days after the BLA's train hijacking, which resulted in 26 deaths and highlighted the group's campaign for Balochistan's independence from Pakistan.
Balochistan officials condemned the attack, with Chief Minister Sarfraz Bugti vowing to eliminate terrorist groups and restore peace in the region.
The BLA, designated a terrorist organization by Pakistan and the U.S., has long accused the central government of exploiting the province's natural resources while neglecting its development.
