While Pakistan has dubbed the Mushakhail incident as a ‘terrorist attack’, the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) said that the deceased passengers were Pakistani military servicemen who were disguised in civilian clothes.
Earlier in the day, the Baloch Yakjehti Committee said that shopkeepers and entrepreneurs have observed a shutter down strike in most areas of Balochistan, including Khuzdar, Kalat, Mangchar, Nushki, Dalbandin, Mastung and Kharan, against state oppression and brutality at the Baloch National Gathering and the imposition of curfew in Makran, including Gwadar.
