<h1>Balochistan Liberation Army Intensifies Attacks with Jaffar Express Siege, Killing 25; Highlights Rising Insurgency Capabilities.</h1> The Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) has escalated its insurgency tactics, as demonstrated by the recent siege of the Jaffar Express, which resulted in the deaths of 21 passengers and four soldiers. This incident highlights the BLA's shift towards more sophisticated and audacious attacks since 2024, targeting security forces, Chinese nationals, and civilians. The insurgency is fueled by longstanding grievances among the Baloch people, including poverty, underdevelopment, and exclusion from Balochistan's natural resources. The BLA's growing capabilities are attributed to its effective indoctrination and support from foreign entities, posing significant challenges to Pakistani security forces.
