Unidentified gunmen reportedly attacked a construction company’s camp in Khuzdar district and ‘abducted 20 labourers’. The assailants also torched several vehicles and heavy machinery, causing extensive damage to the site.
Officials said the incident occurred in the remote Kaleri area of Naal, about 80 kilometres from Khuzdar. Armed men reportedly blocked the highway before storming the private company’s camp and crush plant. The company had been working on a key road project linking Khuzdar to Basima in Washuk district—part of Balochistan’s ongoing development plans.
According to Levies officer Ali Akbar, the attackers set fire to machinery and vehicles at the site, damaging at least eight, including heavy equipment and transport trucks. “The gunmen then forcibly took several workers with them,” he said, adding that most of the abducted labourers hailed from Sindh province and had gone to Balochistan for work.
Manager Zulfiqar Ahmed of the construction company D-Baloch, confirmed that the attackers initially kidnapped 20 workers, releasing two later. “Eighteen labourers are still missing,” he said. “The attack has severely affected our operations and created fear among the staff,” he mentioned.
Following the incident, security forces, including the Levies, Frontier Corps, and Counter Terrorism Department, launched a joint search operation. Authorities have cordoned off the area. Local tribal elders are providing all possible help to the agencies in their efforts to locate the missing workers. No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack and kidnapping the workers.
Officials noted that armed Baloch insurgent groups have been active in the region and have previously targeted road construction projects and non-local workers, accusing them of representing external interests.
This is the second major abduction of workers in Balochistan within a week. Just days earlier, nine labourers were kidnapped by unidentified gunmen in the Dasht area of Mastung district. With the latest incident, the total number of abducted workers this week has risen to 27.
The recent surge in violence has raised serious security concerns for companies and labourers involved in development projects across the province. The Balochistan government has condemned the attack, pledging to bring the perpetrators to justice.
Local residents and analysts warn that such incidents undermine Balochistan’s fragile development process. They urge authorities to implement a comprehensive security strategy to protect workers and ongoing infrastructure projects.
Investigations are ongoing, and security forces continue search operations in the affected areas.

The most horrid movement ever in Pakistan's history are these BLA lot. They literally kidnap and slaughter other ethnicities on mass. Punjabis their fav, Sindhis and Pashtuns at times.
I would Genghis Khan them. Total war, crucify one each every 1 mile, head missing to serve as a lesson. Let the crows pick at them.
People think that the forces have gone hard on them, which is utter nonsense. They played too nice, hence this.

Politicians kam na karen... courts delay the case.... army runs the government and people have to defend themselves.
Poor Balochis cannot get education, sustained water and food, and on top of that they shd fight.

The Majority of Baloch no longer want to be part of Pakistan. They are teaching their young children now that they need to fight for freedom.

America isnt one uniform thought entity.
Moreover, I have also drawn a map of Balochistan seperated from Pakistan and I can also draw a map of Wakhan corridor with Pakistan. Maps are cheap, so is gaming potential scenarios.
Actual on the ground efforts are a push and pull based on state department(which is highly infested with Modi loving NRIs) and the whims of the Trump Reich.
So far Trump is pushing all these NRI Modi moles plans to the back.

The majority of Balochis, living in Balochistan, think differently. Otherwise, my friend is Balochi from Rajanpur who speaks Siraiki. Nicest guy.

I can be Sindhi as well but very open to calling a spade a spade. That doesnt mean it is anti Pakistan, anti establishment or otherwise. It is a view based on hearing from ground realities including everyone from elite Baloch gentry to your local makrani - go talk to them and tell me.
The only Anti I am is Baingan - I am very anti Baingans.
