In the latest development, the BLA has claimed that it has killed an Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) officer in the Pasni area of Gwadar district. Along with this attack, the Baloch rebels have carried out many other attacks to send a message that it is going to be more difficult for the Pakistani army and agencies to survive in Balochistan.ISI officer targetedAccording to BLA spokesperson Jiyand Baloch, the fighters of the organization carried out an intelligence operation in Pasni on Sunday evening, in which an ISI officer named Mohammad Nawaz was killed. Nawaz belonged to Khushab district of Punjab province and was posted in Gwadar. According to the information, BLA's intelligence unit 'Ziraab' was keeping an eye on Nawaz for a long time.
