Security-related sources and local reports indicate that intermittent clashes have been ongoing in parts of Barkhan district, particularly in the Baghao area, involving terrorists and members of Bugti tribal groups.
According to initial accounts, sporadic exchanges of fire have continued over the past 24 hours, with the situation remaining fluid and not yet independently verified by official authorities. Sources suggest that tensions escalated following an alleged attempted abduction of a member of the Bugti tribe near Rakhni on the previous day.
Following the reported incident, members of the Bugti tribal community are said to have mobilized under local leadership and pursued the suspected terrorists. Unverified reports identify tribal figures, including Mir Aftab Bugti, as being involved in coordinating these movements alongside other local leaders. These claims have not been officially confirmed.
Security sources further indicate that suspected terrorist elements are believed to be operating from hideouts in the Baghao area of Barkhan, where efforts to locate and contain them are reportedly ongoing. However, authorities have not issued any formal confirmation regarding the identity, number, or affiliation of those involved.
Local accounts suggest that intermittent firing between both sides has continued, contributing to a tense and unstable security environment in the region. No official statement has yet been released regarding casualties or material damage.
