Ten Pakistani army personnel were killed in an IED attack by Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) in Quetta on Friday.
The IED blast targeted a convoy of the Pakistani army in Margat, a suburb of Quetta, leading to the casualties.
BLA claimed responsibility for the attack, stating its fighters targeted the army convoy using a remote-controlled device. "The blast completely destroyed the enemy vehicle, killing all 10 personnel on board, including subedar Shehzad Ameen, naib subedar Abbas, sepoy Khalil, sepoy Zahid, sepoy Khurram Saleem, and others," said a statement from BLA spokesperson Jiyand Baloch.
BLA also warned its operations against the Pakistani army would intensify in the coming days. "Our fight for freedom will not be deterred, and we will continue to target the enemy with all our might," it said. The attack is the latest in a series of strikes against the Pakistani army in Balochistan, highlighting the ongoing tensions in the region.
On Thursday, BLA had killed seven Pakistan Army personnel and injured four in separate attacks in Balochistan.
These attacks took place in Zamuran, Kolwah and Kalat districts.
Security posts were also captured at some locations, the outfit said in a statement.
