Unidentified armed men attacked the Jaffar Express in Balochistan's Dera Murad Jamali, firing multiple shots and launching four rockets at the passenger train. However, security forces swiftly retaliated, foiling the assault and forcing the attackers to flee.

In the attack, several train compartments sustained minor damage, but no casualties were reported. Officials said the prompt response from security personnel averted a major tragedy and ensured the safety of all passengers.

Following the attack, the train was halted at Dera Murad Jamali Railway Station, while law enforcement agencies launched a large-scale search operation to track down the assailants. Railway authorities confirmed that the situation was brought under control and security was tightened along the route.

This is not the first time the Jaffar Express has come under attack. Earlier this year, the passenger train was briefly hijacked in the mountainous Bolan Valley, and in September last year, it was also targeted near Quetta Railway Station.

The state has designated Balochistan-based groups as Fitna al-Hindustan to highlight India’s alleged role in terrorism and destabilisation across Pakistan.

The ISPR stated that an intelligence-based operation (IBO) was conducted in the Chiltan mountain range in Quetta district on the reported presence of terrorists.

“During the conduct of the operation, own troops effectively engaged the terrorists’ location, and after an intense fire exchange, 14 Indian-sponsored terrorists were sent to hell,” it said.

The ISPR further stated that another IBO was conducted in Buleda in Kech district, where a hideout was busted and four militants were “successfully neutralised”.

“Weapons, ammunition and explosives were also recovered from the killed terrorists, who remained actively involved in numerous terrorist activities,” the ISPR said.
