POB witnessed a new wave of violent incidents as unidentified individuals carried out a series of attacks against Pakistan Army and infrastructure. According to reports, assailants targeted a Levies checkpoint in Washuk district, seizing weapons and equipment, while additional attacks were reported against security posts in Panjgur, Kech, and Gandawah, and a construction company was assaulted in Dukki.

In Washuk’s Rakhshan area, a large group of armed men launched a nighttime assault on a Levies checkpoint, taking control of vehicles, motorcycles, and weapons, and eventually setting the checkpoint ablaze. No casualties have been reported so far. This latest incident mirrors a similar attack in the Gishkor area of Awaran district, which took place only two days earlier, highlighting the precarious security situation in the province.

The unrest also extended to Kech district, where unidentified attackers targeted a Pak forces post at Heronk, while reports from Panjgur indicate armed groups launched an attack on a main camp, with locals claiming to have heard at least five powerful explosions in the area.

In another attack, unidentified individuals targeted a police outpost in Gandawah and set fire to machinery of a construction company working on the Duki-Chamalang road in Jhalar.

These incidents resulted in a huge loss for the security forces, though officials have yet to confirm details or provide an official stance. So far, no group has claimed responsibility for the attacks; however, the frequency and scale of such incidents reflect the enduring tensions in Balochistan, where pro-independence groups have taken up arms against the unjust and brutal policies of the Paki establishment.

The conflict in POB has simmered for decades, fueled by grievances over Pakistan Army’s oppressive and iron-fisted control and ‘genocide’ of Baloch people in the region. Pro-independence Baloch groups have resisted against an occupation force that enforces policies of suppression and terror against the local population. Enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and a “kill and dump” policy have left the Baloch community in a state of constant fear, with countless families mourning missing loved ones and seeking justice.
