Bloodshed in Balochistan: Why Pakistan’s resource-rich province remains in conflict
A recent militant attack in Balochistan resulted in the deaths of 27 policemen, prompting a protest from their families demanding government action. The Pakistani government responded by agreeing to establish a judicial commission to investigate the attacks and launched 'Operation Shaban,' claiming to have killed 129 militants since July 5. This incident highlights the ongoing violence and instability in Balochistan, a resource-rich province with a complex history of insurgency and state repression.
