Second Day of Military Aggression in Tump; Shepherd Detained, Areas Under Siege

QUETTA: The Pakistani military’s offensive in the Tump and Kulbar regions of District Kech, Balochistan, entered its second consecutive day today.

The affected areas include Nasirabad and its surrounding regions, where ground troops and military helicopters have been actively engaged.

According to local sources, commandos were deployed at various locations via military helicopters yesterday.

Foot patrols have been seen moving through Nasirabad, and military personnel have also been spotted in Tump, intensifying the military presence in the area.

In a related development, local sources reported that a shepherd was detained by military personnel in Nasirabad yesterday. However, there has been no further information about his condition or whereabouts.

So far, Pakistani officials have not provided any details regarding the latest offensives or the circumstances surrounding the arrest.

Frequent military atrocities in Balochistan have raised concerns, as local communities continue to be affected, and official communication remains limited.

It is noteworthy that past military offensives in the region have seen reports of civilian casualties, though details are often withheld by authorities.

The ongoing military brutalities in Kech and several other regions of Balochistan have further heightened tension with residents fearing to face collective and indiscriminate punishment at the hands of Pakistani forces.
