Various parts of Balochistan are once again facing intense, undeclared military aggression. A campaign involving large-scale advances, aerial bombardment, and ground operations by Pakistani forces is underway—stretching from Kachhi and Dhadar to the border regions of Dasht and Kech—sparking widespread panic and deep concern among the local population.
According to reports, aggressive operations by security forces in the Kachhi and Dhadar districts and their adjacent mountain ranges have continued for a second day. Gunship helicopters have been observed shelling these areas, alongside continuous drone flights. Reports of heavy gunfire and clashes between security forces and armed individuals have also been received from various locations; however, military authorities have not issued any official statement regarding the situation or any resulting casualties.
Meanwhile, sources from the Tump area of Kech report a significant surge in the movement of security forces around the villages of Gomazi, Deezig, Maar, and Kir. Military personnel, armored vehicles, and tanks have been seen advancing toward these villages, while troop deployments have been increased in the mountain ranges of Gomazi.
Furthermore, continuous helicopter patrols and drone flights over the strategic mountain range of Mazan Band have raised concerns that security forces may be preparing for a large-scale operation. Although there is no definitive confirmation of casualties from the recent operations, local communities maintain that ordinary citizens have consistently been the primary targets of this state aggression carried out under the guise of security operations. In the past, such actions in Balochistan have led to reports of grave atrocities—including enforced disappearances, mass killings, the torching of homes, violence against women and children, and the looting of valuable assets—leaving residents of Kech and Kachhi once again facing forced displacement and a humanitarian crisis.
