People seem to have forgot why Trump spent years attacking Obama’s Iran deal. So I went back and compared Trump's criticisms of the JCPOA with what his administration is saying about its own MOU with Iran. dailywire.com/news/how-does-…

Militants continue targeting infrastructure in Balochistan. On Tuesday, a bridge on the Karachi–Quetta Highway in Surab & another in Nushki were blown up. The BRG also claims responsibility for destroying a bridge in Dandhar, Bolan. 5 bridges have been destroyed within a month.

Armed men set up a road blockade on the Quetta–Taftan Highway, where the arrival of an FC convoy led to intense clashes that are reportedly still ongoing.

@ujay_bravo Can you please provide.

@MaoBaluch I know the first hand incident where they not only concealed the info but manipulated the losses also

I remain shocked by the strategic capabilities of Baloch militant groups. Whether it was the BLF operation in Naal or the BLA operation in Quetta, a recurring question remains: how do they manage to withdraw from major operations with either no casualties or only minimal losses?

@ujay_bravo From the time I have been covering this conflict, they have not concealed their casualties, unlike Pakistan, which is often accused of withholding information about its losses

@MaoBaluch They don't publish complete information, only information that benefits them .

The organisation stated that all of its fighters involved in the operation had withdrawn safely following the clashes. thebalochistanpost.net/2026/06/baloch…

Armed men reportedly attacked Pakistani forces near Lakpass in Mastung, with reports suggesting that 2 personnel were killed & 3 others injured. Meanwhile, another attack targeting Pakistani forces was also reported in the Isplinji area of Mastung. Further details are awaited.

This raises questions about the circumstances surrounding such casualty claims and the gap between official statements and the militants' own accounts.

What makes these conflicting accounts particularly notable is that Baloch militant groups have historically acknowledged their battlefield losses and regularly publish the names, roles and ranks of their dead fighters.

The enforced disappearance of Nargis Baloch and her husband Mahir in Karachi coincides with the Balochistan CM’s visit to the city. The timing raises serious concerns about state actions and potential media narratives targeting Baloch activists.

beyond their immediate political or military context.

Whether viewed as admiration, political expression, or a social media trend, the emergence of youths emulating Shaynaz Baloch points to the effectiveness of the BLA's media strategy. The phenomenon demonstrates how recognizable figures can evolve into symbols that resonate far

The growing number of footage showing children & young people imitating Shaynaz Baloch suggests the BLA's influence is extending beyond armed ops. In modern conflicts, narratives, symbols, & personalities can be as important as battlefield actions in shaping public perceptions.
