BLA eliminates Pak Army backed leader amid disappearance and drug allegations
The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) has claimed responsibility for a remote-controlled IED attack that killed Muhammad Ameen, a major member of an alleged Pakistani army-backed killing squad, and his son. The BLA accused Ameen of taking part in military operations, enforced disappearances, and targeted assassinations in the Zamuran region. Agent Muhammad Ameen, a prominent agent of the occupying Pakistani army's so-called killing squad, and his son were both neutralised by Baloch Liberation Army fighters. BLA liberation fighters used a remote-controlled IED to assault enemy agent Muhammad Ameen's truck. As a result, he was neutralised alongside his son, Naveed Ameen, and his vehicle was destroyed, according to BLA spokesperson Jeeyand Baloch. Agent Ameen was personally involved in aiding military aggression in Zamuran and its surroundings, as well as enforced disappearances and deliberate killings of young people. In exchange for these atrocities, this gang had complete freedom from the invading army to market drugs. The same gang, led by Muhammad Ameen, was directly responsible for the martyrdom of "BRAS" liberation fighters. In July 2018, Hussain Shahsawar alias Chesal and Hanif Lal alias Ustad Shohaz were killed in Zamuran's Jalagi region. In January 2020, this group was implicated in the martyrdom of Majid Baloch alias Saleem, Miran Baloch alias Dad Jan, Shakeel Baloch alias Jeeyand, Daulat Baloch alias Baran, and Yousuf Baloch alias Doda in the Naag area, according to Jeeyand Baloch. The Baloch people have faced systematic oppression and torture through the misuse of several laws, particularly in regions like Pakistan's Balochistan. Laws such as the Anti-Terrorism Act and special security ordinances have been used to justify arbitrary arrests, prolonged detention without trial, and denial of basic legal rights. Under these laws, security forces often operate with broad powers and legal immunity, leading to widespread reports of enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and torture, including physical and psychological abuse. Military courts and special tribunals frequently try Baloch activists without fair trial standards, further denying them justice. Additionally, media censorship laws suppress Baloch voices and conceal these abuses from the public, perpetuating a cycle of violence and impunity against the Baloch people.

Balochistan: BLA claims it killed Pakistan Army-backed leader in IED attack
The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA), a militant group in Pakistan-administered Balochistan, claimed responsibility for a remote-controlled IED attack that killed top members of an alleged Pakistani army-backed killing squad read more Amid the brewing tensions in the region, the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) has claimed responsibility for a remote-controlled IED attack that killed Muhammad Ameen, one of the prominent members of an alleged 'Pakistani army-backed killing squad'. On Monday, BLA accused Ameen of taking part in all sorts of military operations, enforced disappearances, and targeted assassinations in the Zamuran region in Balochistan. 'Agent Muhammad Ameen, a prominent agent of the occupying Pakistani army's so-called killing squad, and his son were both neutralised by Baloch Liberation Army fighters. BLA liberation fighters used a remote-controlled IED to assault enemy agent Muhammad Ameen's truck. As a result, he was neutralised alongside his son, Naveed Ameen, and his vehicle was destroyed,' BLA spokesperson Jeeyand Baloch said in a statement. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The BLA maintained that Agent Ameen was personally involved in aiding military aggression in Zamuran and its nearby areas. The BLA also accused the kill squad leader of engaging in enforced disappearances and deliberate killings of young people in the conflict-stricken region. About the Pakistani kill squad According to the statement released by the BLA spokesperson, the so-called killing squad had the freedom to evade the army's regulations and is notorious for circulating drugs in the region. 'The same gang, led by Muhammad Ameen, was directly responsible for the martyrdom of 'BRAS' liberation fighters,' the statement further reads. It is pertinent to note that the attack from the Balochi militant group came days after Pakistan introduced a draconian law that allows Pakistan's military and intelligence agencies to detain individuals, especially Baloch civilians, for up to 90 days without charge. The Counter-Terrorism (Balochistan Amendment) Act 2025, which was passed by the Balochistan Assembly last week, allowed the detention of anyone solely based on suspicion. Shortly after the law was passed in the Balochistan Assembly, legal experts and human rights activists warned that the legislation bypasses judicial safeguards and effectively legalises the atrocities and practices already being committed by the Pakistani security forces in the shadows. Under the Act, Pakistan's Joint Investigation Teams (JITs) can now operate with expanded powers. They can issue detention orders and conduct ideological profiling of the suspects. Not only this, but military officials will now be sitting on the oversight panel, eroding civilians' control over law enforcement. For decades, Baloch civilians have been facing atrocities in the Pakistani-administered regions. This has also led to a rise in militant activities in the province. With inputs from ANI.

Pakistan Army Chief Rejects Indian Regional Dominance, Calls Water Treaty Suspension Unacceptable
Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir has declared that his country will never accept Indian dominance in South Asia, while strongly condemning India's decision to suspend the Indus Water Treaty as crossing a fundamental boundary for Pakistan. Speaking to university officials and educators, Munir emphasized Pakistan's unwavering stance against what he characterized as Indian regional hegemony. His remarks came just weeks after both nations agreed to a ceasefire following several days of military confrontation that had escalated tensions across the subcontinent. The Pakistani military leader expressed particular concern over India's suspension of the Indus Water Treaty, describing water rights as an inviolable principle that directly impacts the lives of Pakistan's 240 million citizens. According to statements released by Pakistan's Inter-Services Public Relations, Munir categorized any compromise on water-related issues as completely unacceptable to his nation. India's decision to suspend the decades-old water-sharing agreement marked the first time such action had been taken since the treaty's establishment in 1960. The suspension followed a terrorist attack in Kashmir's Pahalgam region that claimed 26 tourist lives, prompting India's Cabinet Committee on Security, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, to take this unprecedented step. The Indus Water Treaty governs the distribution and management of six major rivers flowing between India and Pakistan, including the Indus, Jhelum, Chenab, Ravi, Beas, and Sutlej. Under this agreement, India has not only shared water resources but also provided financial assistance to help Pakistan develop its water infrastructure systems over the decades. Anticipating Pakistan's reaction to the treaty suspension, India launched a comprehensive diplomatic initiative, deploying seven teams of parliamentarians from various political parties to different regions worldwide. This post-Operation Sindoor diplomatic campaign aimed to explain and justify India's position on the water treaty suspension to the international community. Beyond water disputes, Munir also addressed the escalating insurgency in Pakistan's Balochistan province, where rebel attacks have intensified against Pakistani security forces. The Army Chief alleged that Indian intelligence agencies were providing support to Baloch separatists, claiming that these insurgent groups were acting as proxies for foreign interests, particularly India. The situation in Balochistan has become increasingly volatile, with the provincial capital Quetta experiencing multiple attacks on Pakistani forces on May 8 alone. During the recent period of cross-border military action with India, Baloch rebels reportedly escalated their offensive operations, even replacing Pakistani flags with their own symbols in various locations. Munir disputed the authenticity of the Baloch insurgency, asserting that the individuals involved were not genuinely representing Baloch interests but were instead foreign-backed elements working against Pakistan's territorial integrity. The Pakistani military leader also made reference to divine intervention during the recent military conflict with India, expressing his belief that Pakistan had received spiritual assistance during the confrontation. This conflict began when India conducted precision strikes under Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting what it described as terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Pakistan responded with attempted strikes on Indian military installations over the following three days, prompting what India characterized as a firm and decisive response. The military engagement concluded with both nations announcing a ceasefire agreement on May 10, temporarily ending the immediate crisis. The Army Chief's statements reflect Pakistan's continued resistance to accepting what it perceives as India's growing influence in South Asian affairs, while highlighting the complex web of disputes involving water rights, territorial conflicts, and regional security concerns that continue to define the relationship between these nuclear-armed neighbors.
