Balochistan, Pakistan’s largest province, is facing serious violence and unrest. The Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA), a militant group, has claimed responsibility for recent attacks on Pakistani security forces. According to the group, many security personnel were killed, and some were kidnapped. These claims have not been fully confirmed by the Pakistani government. Balochistan has a long history of conflict because many local people feel ignored, poor, and exploited despite the region’s rich natural resources. Militants accuse the government of taking gas and minerals without helping local communities. The violence has increased concerns about law and order and the safety of civilians. Pakistan’s government says it is taking strong action to control the situation and protect national security. The unrest in Balochistan also affects regional stability, including major projects like the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). The situation remains tense, with no quick solution in sight.
