In a swift response to Iran's recent assault on the Jaish al-Adl group within Pakistani borders, Pakistan carried out retaliatory strikes on two Baloch separatist groups, the Balochistan Liberation Front and the Balochistan Liberation Army. A senior intelligence source confirmed the strikes, stating, "I can only confirm that we have conducted strikes against anti-Pakistan militant groups that were targeted inside Iran." The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, condemning Iran's breach of sovereignty, declared, "Last night's unprovoked breach is a violation of international law." The ministry added, "Pakistan reserves the right to respond," escalating tensions as geopolitical complexities unfold amidst regional conflicts.
