Markets and roads were closed across several districts of Balochistan on Tuesday, while bus operators announced a three-day suspension of services and railway officials curtailed a passenger train route amid heightened security measures, local and transport sources said.

Noshki’s main market and adjoining entry and exit routes were closed, while a heavy contingent of Pakistani forces was deployed across the area, local sources said.

Locals described the situation as “curfew-like”, saying the restrictions had largely confined people to their homes.

Shopkeepers in Panjgur said Pakistani forces prevented them from entering markets, resulting in the closure of Chitkan Bazaar and other commercial areas. Several roads were also reportedly closed, bringing business activity to a standstill.

Several major roads in Quetta were also blocked with trucks and containers. Sources said barriers had been placed on Spini Road, Chaman Phatak, Joint Road, Zarghoon Road, routes leading to the Red Zone and other key roads, restricting movement across the city.

Reports from Turbat said Pakistani forces had also ordered markets closed in Nasirabad and other areas, affecting local businesses.

Bus services linking Karachi with Turbat and Gwadar in both directions will be suspended from 13 to 15 August because of security concerns, transport union sources said.

The sources added that terminals serving the affected routes had also been ordered to remain closed. Bus services are expected to resume on 16 August.

Railway officials said the Jaffar Express travelling from Peshawar to Quetta would terminate at Jacobabad on Tuesday instead of continuing to Quetta, potentially disrupting travel to the Balochistan capital.

Local sources said strict security measures had been imposed across several cities and along major highways in Balochistan in recent days, with Pakistani forces deployed at different locations. Trenches had reportedly been dug across roads in some areas, while markets and other commercial centres had been closed.

Residents said restrictions imposed in the name of security were disrupting daily life and commercial activity. They also alleged that state institutions were closing entire cities and roads “merely to display a Pakistani flag”, adding to the difficulties faced by the public.

Dr Hakeem Lehri: An Era Comes to an End – TBP Editorial

Prominent Baloch nationalist leader Dr Hakeem Lehri passed away in Karachi on 7 October. His death is not merely the loss of a political leader, but marks the end of an era in Baloch nationalist politics, one built on ideological commitment, political perseverance, the struggle for national rights, and the determination to remain steadfast in one’s position under the most difficult circumstances. Dr Hakeem Lehri was among those political figures who maintained their association with Baloch nationalist politics from their youth until their final breath and dedicated their entire lives to the struggle for Baloch national rights. Dr Hakeem Lehri belonged to the generation of Baloch nationalist politicians who did not regard politics merely as a means of attaining power or pursuing temporary political interests. Rather, they linked it to national identity, political consciousness, collective rights and the future struggle of the nation. For him, Baloch politics was not a temporary pursuit, but a lifelong commitment. This was why, despite changes in political circumstances, the difficulties faced by the movement in different periods, the rise and decline of political forces, and the numerous obstacles placed in the path of the struggle, Dr Hakeem Lehri never abandoned his political commitment. He was a representative political activist and leader of the generation that witnessed Baloch nationalist politics pass through various historical phases. He witnessed state repression, military operations, the arrests and imprisonment of political activists, enforced disappearances, and the killings of political figures. He saw his comrades face hardships for their political struggle, witnessed his contemporaries endure various ordeals, and closely experienced the ups and downs that emerged within Baloch politics throughout this period. These events were not merely part of his personal memories, but living experiences of the political history through which his generation passed and which profoundly shaped the direction, character and nature of Baloch nationalist politics. The significance of his personality lay not only in the fact that he was a recognised name in Baloch nationalist politics, but also in that he was a witness to a long political era. He carried memories, experiences and observations of a political struggle that influenced generations. Such individuals serve as the historical memory of any political movement, because their lives bring together its different periods, achievements, failures, disagreements and sacrifices. When such figures pass away, it is not merely the loss of an individual; the movement is also deprived of a witness who observed its history at close quarters and played a role in its various stages. Dr Hakeem Lehri is no longer among us, but his life and political commitment will remain part of the history of Baloch nationalism. He will be remembered as a member of the generation that maintained its political identity even under difficult circumstances and remained committed to the struggle for national rights until the end, rather than abandoning it. His death marks the end of an era, but the political memory and historical significance of that era will continue to form part of the study of Baloch politics in the years to come.

BLA Releases Video of Hammal Maritime Defence Force’s 2nd Attack in Jiwani

The Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) has released a two-minute video of an attack on Pakistani Coast Guards boats in Jiwani, a coastal area of Gwadar district in Balochistan. According to the BLA, 13 Pakistani personnel were killed in the attack. The video, released through the group’s official media channel, Hakkal, shows armed men aboard a boat. The organisation identified them as members of its maritime unit, the Hammal Maritime Defence Force (HMDF), and said they used a boat equipped with modern weapons to target two Pakistani Coast Guards boats patrolling the waters off Jiwani. The Hammal Maritime Defence Force is a maritime unit established by the BLA, which announced its formation on 13 April 2026. The group has described the Jiwani attack as its second operation involving the unit. On 12 April 2026, the BLA claimed to have targeted a Pakistani Navy patrol boat near Mil Tiyab in Jiwani, describing the incident as the HMDF’s first operation. The group also released a video of that first operation. Pakistani authorities have not yet released any details about the attack or commented on the BLA’s claims.

Four Bodies Recovered in Balochistan’s Kalat District

The bodies of four unidentified people have been recovered from two separate locations in Kalat district, Balochistan, and shifted to nearby government health facilities for medico-legal procedures and identification. According to police sources, three bodies were found in the Chhappar area of Kalat, while another was recovered from Malangzai in Manguchar. Police sources said the three bodies recovered from Chhappar were shifted to the District Headquarters (DHQ) Hospital in Kalat, while the body found in Malangzai was taken to a Rural Health Centre (RHC). The identification process is under way. Police sources further stated that all four individuals appeared to have been subjected to torture and shot dead. Their identities and the motives behind the killings remain unknown. The recovery of unidentified bodies has been reported in various parts of Balochistan over the years. Some individuals found dead in such circumstances have later been identified as people who had previously been reported missing. Families of missing persons and human rights groups have repeatedly alleged that some were victims of enforced disappearance and extrajudicial killings. On the previous day, ten bodies were recovered in Barkhan district. One of the deceased has so far been identified as a person who had allegedly been forcibly disappeared by Pakistani forces.
