(NSFW) Bridge Bomb Sends Pakistani Troops Flying
Published 1 years ago
Footage shows a deadly improvised explosive attack carried out by separatist fighters of the BLF against a Pakistani military convoy along the Gwadar coastal highway on Mar. 5, 2023.
According to the Balochistan Liberation Front, the well-timed blast targeted the second vehicle in a two vehicle convoy and resulted in the deaths of eight Pakistani troops with an additional three wounded.
The various Baluchistan insurgent groups are fighting for independence from Pakistan as they claim the Pakistan government offers their ethnic group no representation within the government, while extracting resources from their mineral rich province and selling out their ancestral lands to Chinese investors.
