Baloch Liberation Army: The rebels who shook Pakistan

The Hindu  

October 18, 2018 came bearing bad news for the Baloch Liberation Army. The BLA suffered another setback when its top commander Aslam Baloch was killed in a blast three months later, in December 2018. However, the BLA carried out some more daring attacks, including the May 2019 attack on the Pearl Continental Hotel in Gwadar, the newest port of Pakistan which is also vital for the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. The new generation of young social media savvy Baloch university graduates is the main support base of the group, and the Majeed Brigade, the wing of the BLA that carried out the attack on the train, has been consistently at the forefront of violent operations. Following the Jaffar Express attack, in which, according to the Pakistani military, 31 people, including five civilian passengers, were killed, Mr. Marri said: “We are Baloch and we reject Pakistan’s flag.
