Suspected separatists kill 8 Pakistani policemen in coordinated attacks.

Pakistan has been facing a long-standing separatist movement in Balochistan, where rebels target state forces, foreign nationals, and non-locals in the mineral-rich province bordering Afghanistan and Iran. Suspected separatists launched coordinated attacks in multiple cities across Balochistan, killing at least eight policemen. The Balochistan Liberation Army claimed responsibility for the attacks, which targeted military installations and officials. The Pakistani government has not yet responded to the BLA’s claim, as security operations continue in the affected areas.
