Six terrorists affiliated with the banned Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) are among those eliminated during an operation in Dalbandin, Chagai district, according to initial information received on Tuesday.
Details surrounding the operation remain limited, and the reported number of casualties is yet to be independently confirmed. A visual of one recovered body has also emerged following the operation.
The development comes amid growing pressure on BLA terrorists operating across parts of Balochistan, where security forces and local communities have increasingly confronted attempts by terrorist groups to establish or maintain armed footholds.
Initial information also suggests that the development may be linked to a clash between local residents and BLA terrorists in Panjpai, Nushki, where two terrorists were reportedly eliminated and four others injured. It remains unclear whether that confrontation is directly connected to the operation in Dalbandin.
The reported operation took place in the wider Chagai region, an area of strategic importance because of its proximity to the border and its extensive road and trade routes.
Security personnel are reportedly conducting further checks in the area as authorities work to establish the identities of the eliminated terrorists and determine the circumstances surrounding the operation.
Further details, including the confirmed number of terrorists eliminated and injured, are awaited.
