BLA claims responsibility for 9 attacks; killing 6 soldiers

Quetta (Pakistan-occupied Balochistan), Dec 24 (NVI) Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) tonight said it carried out 9 separate attacks on the occupying Pakistan Army and its assets over the last 3 days in Balochistan, killing 6 soldiers and 2 informers and injuring 5.

Baloch Liberation Army fighters targeted the Pakistani army, gas pipeline, railway tracks, agents, and mineral-transporting vehicles during nine separate attacks in Dasht, Zamuran, Quetta, Mashkay, Panjgur, Kalat and Tump, causing severe damage to the enemy, its spokesman Jeeyand Baloch said in a statement to NVI.

Today, Baloch Liberation Army fighters targeted a Pakistani army convoy, using a remote-controlled IED in the Dasht, Zaren bug area of ​​Kech, he said.

As a result, 4 enemy army personnel were eliminated and 4 critically injured, while a vehicle was destroyed, he said.

The spok spokesman said the army convoy was providing security to foreign tourists who came to Balochistan for hunting rare wildlife.

The Baloch Liberation Army warns foreign tourists that Balochistan is in a state of war, he said.

“In areas where the Pakistani army brings tourists for money to hunt, hunting for the protection of rare wildlife has been banned,” Baloch said.

“Anyone who violates this will be forcibly stopped by Baloch fighters and expelled from these war areas,” the spokesman warned.

He said the BLA fighters deliberately did not target foreign tourist vehicles in the said convoy but attacked the enemy army vehicle to serve “as a warning to these tourists”.

Yesterday, BLA fighters targeted foot patrol of Pakistani army with a remote-controlled IED in the Pugumzan area of ​​Zamuran, he said.

Two enemy army personnel were eliminated on the spot and one was injured, the spokesman added.

Yesterday, in another attack, a police vehicle was targeted in a bomb attack on Quetta’s Qambrani Road, he said, adding police personnel suffered casualties and property losses.

In Quetta, the railway track was destroyed by installing explosives near Saryab Road last night.

In another operation this evening, fighters destroyed the gas pipeline on the western bypass.

Baloch Liberation Army fighters targeted an exploitative construction company’s vehicle in an IED attack in the middle of Kapoor and Lakhi in Mashkay on Monday, resulting in severe damage to the fighter, he said.

Meanwhile, on Monday, BLA fighters neutralized Shaman Ali, an active agent of the Pakistani Army, near Qalam Chowk in Panjgur, the spokesman said.

The said agent was disguised and was informing for the enemy army in various places in Panjgur city, he said.

In another operation on Monday night, the Baloch Liberation Army fighters neutralized an agent of the enemy army disguised as a madman in Kalat city.

The agent was associated with the military intelligence (MI) of the occupying army and was seen moving with the army.
