Khuzdar: The battlefield is no longer symbolic. It is now real , and unforgiving. The latest video by DG ISPR confirms that much was being done silently only success speaks at the end. In Zehri, 6x FAH operatives were eliminated in a precision strike, bringing the total to 50 x since the operation began. The mountains once used as militant hideouts are no longer safe havens. Backed fully by the people of Zehri, the Security Forces had dismantled hostile networks with calculated force. Security analysts warn: “Yeh anjam fitna Al-Hindustaan hamesha yaad rakhega.”
Khuzdar: Security forces have launched a major operation to protect the local population from the menace of Fitna al Hindustan in Zehri. Sources confirm that the month-long operation is nearing its final phase, with the majority of terrorists linked to BRAS (the united front of terrorist groups in Balochistan) eliminated and sent to hell. This decisive action underscores the state’s commitment to restoring peace and security for the people of Zehri. Further details to follow.

Pakistan has barred Taiwanese airlines from its airspace in support of the One China policy. Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said only mainland Chinese carriers are allowed to fly over the country. This is the first such move by any nation. Taiwanese airlines have already started rerouting Asia-Europe flights via Russia.

Nushki is the hometown of both Bashir Zaib Baloch and Rehman Gul Baloch. Local sources say they recruited and brainwashed Asifa Mengal(Wasted in Herof 2) from the Mengal family in Nushki itself for a suicide mission. The attack on Nushki Girls College is being linked to pressure on the college for further recruitment. Security forces are urged to investigate this angle fully. May Allah protect our Balochistan from the evil of Bashir Zaib Baloch and Rehman Gul Baloch. Ameen.

Please keep the injured girls from Nushki Girls Degree College in your prayers. They were attacked by BLA terrorists inside the college and were rescued by the security forces. May they recover soon.
Nushki: Three armed masked men of BLA entered Girls Degree College, damaged CCTV cameras and the principal’s office, then opened fire on students. Three girls injured, one in critical condition. Mahmuna and Maryam from Qaziabad, Rukhsana from Killi Mengal, shifted to Mir Gul Khan Nasir Teaching Hospital. Security forces have been sent on ground. BLA keeps targeting girls and education because it cannot face the truth or the people of Balochistan. This is not struggle. This is pure terrorism. Reject BLA. Stand with security forces and the students of Nushki.

Between the Guns: A Baloch Woman’s Right to Choose Her Own Future The daughters of any nation are not merely slogans, symbols, or instruments of war. They are living human beings with their own dreams, families, questions, and futures. In the story of Balochistan, a woman appears in many forms: as a mother, a student, a teacher, a doctor, a journalist, or a political activist. Sometimes she raises her voice for the recovery of her loved ones. Sometimes she protests for her rights. And sometimes her name is pulled into political narratives over which she herself has little control. In such an environment a basic question arises: Does a Baloch woman only gain the right to speak when she becomes part of a particular political or armed narrative? One may disagree with a woman’s political position, but character assassination, unverified personal allegations, and public humiliation are no substitute for serious dialogue. At the same time, when speaking of women’s rights, another question cannot be ignored: who decides the life, freedom, and future of a woman who joins an armed struggle? Is it herself, her family, the leadership of an organisation, or the circumstances of war? History offers a clear lesson After the Maoist armed conflict ended in Nepal, many women who had been fighters faced social stigma, family difficulties, and gender discrimination when they tried to return to ordinary civilian life. Research shows that some women who played extraordinary roles during the war later struggled to find their place again in their own society. In Sri Lanka, the experiences of former female fighters of the Tamil Tigers leave a similar question: what remains for these women after the war ends? A report published in April 2025 notes that some former female fighters still struggle with employment, physical disability, and social acceptance. In Colombia, the 2016 peace agreement between FARC and the government opened a different path. After a long armed conflict, steps were taken to reintegrate former fighters into social, economic, and political life, and women played a role in bringing issues of rights, justice, and victims into the peace talks. Yet even after the agreement, challenges of implementation and the protection of women remained. These examples do not mean that every movement, every woman, or every conflict ends the same way. The lesson is that after a war ends, it is not only those who carried weapons who bear the lasting consequences, but also their families, affected civilians, and especially women. Why should a Baloch woman’s future become the legacy of war? If a Baloch girl faces limited paths to education, employment, peaceful political activity, and the ability to decide her own future, that deprivation must be discussed. But the answer to that deprivation cannot be pushing her into another dangerous path. The answer must be expanding real choices, protection, and the possibility of a dignified life. Not every woman who joins an armed group has the same motives. Claiming that she was necessarily forced, or that she joined entirely of her own free will, or turning her personal life into a political weapon, all of these are incomplete claims without evidence. A woman’s own testimony, credible research, and an impartial examination of circumstances are necessary. It is also incorrect to place peaceful political activists, women who raise their voices for human rights, and those who take part in armed actions in the same category. Mixing disagreement and peaceful protest with violence only narrows the space for dialogue. The real question for Balochistan should be how a woman can have a life in which she does not need anyone’s gun, anyone’s political stamp, or anyone’s approval to prove her identity. A life in which her voice is heard, her protection is ensured, and her own opinion is given weight before decisions are made about her. Not fuel for war, but owner of her own future Whether in Libya, Nepal, Sri Lanka, or Colombia, the history of conflicts reminds us that a woman’s participation in war cannot be locked into a single box of pure bravery or pure exploitation. Her experiences can be complex, yet after the war her rights, security, employment, education, and social acceptance must not be ignored. A Baloch woman should neither be romanticised as a symbol of war, nor should her political identity be erased through character assassination, nor should she be treated as a mere tool in anyone’s narrative. She should have the right to speak about her circumstances, choose a peaceful political path, reject violence, and decide her own life. The greatest success for the daughters of Balochistan is not that they become symbols of some war. It is that they are given a life in which joining a war no longer feels like the only path available to them.

Mand, a remote town in Kech District of southern Balochistan near the Pak-Iran border, is fortunate to have dedicated people like Mam Zubaida Jalal, former Pakistani Politician and Educationist. This video shows Government High School Mand, where our children are receiving quality education completely free of cost. Thank you to the Federal and Provincial Governments for this important initiative that brings real opportunities to remote areas like Mand.
