A wave of coordinated militant attacks across Pakistan’s southwestern Balochistan province has become one of the deadliest in years, killing over 150 people, including civilians, security personnel and militants, officials said. Militants of the Baloch Liberation Army struck multiple locations — including Quetta, Gwadar and other towns — targeting security installations, banks and public sites. Pakistan’s military launched intense counter-operations, killing scores of militants and imposing sweeping security restrictions, including cutting mobile internet services to curb coordination. Islamabad vowed retaliation, while India rejected accusations of involvement in the unrest. (PC: Reuters)
