A separatist group known as the Baluchistan Liberation Army has claimed responsibility for a series of attacks in southwestern Pakistan that resulted in the deaths of over 40 individuals. The group, while acknowledging its involvement in the attacks, stated that it did not target civilians. The violence, which occurred over a span of two days, saw the deaths of 23 victims whose bodies were sent to their respective home districts for burial.
The Baluchistan Liberation Army, which is outlawed by the Pakistani government, issued a warning of further attacks, asserting that 800 of its fighters participated in the initial phase of the assaults. The group threatened that subsequent attacks would be more intense and widespread.
