November 9, 2024 – A suicide bomber from the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) targeted Pakistan Army soldiers at Quetta Railway Station on Saturday. The soldiers had just arrived on the Jaffer Express train. The attack killed at least five people and injured over 25 others, including both soldiers and civilians.

The BLA has claimed responsibility for the bombing, saying the attack was aimed at the Pakistani military. Local officials believe the blast was a suicide bombing, but the investigation is still ongoing.

Security forces have sealed off the area, and authorities are working to identify the attackers. This attack is part of the ongoing conflict in Balochistan, where separatist groups are pushing for more autonomy.

The Pakistani government has condemned the bombing and promised to bring those responsible to justice.
