Pakistan Used Drones, Rockets and Missiles Against Militant Hideouts in Iran, in Latest Round of Retaliation Strikes
I bet no one of us had ‘retaliation air strikes between Iran and nuclear-armed Pakistan’ in their bingo cards for 2024.
I told a friend the other day about the tensions arising in the Balochistan, and he gave me a long, hard look while he decided if I was pulling his leg. Balochistan? Does that place even exist?
But yes, Balochistan is an actual region, and the military tensions between Islamabad and Tehran are an all-too-real – and disturbing – development in the Middle East tensions.
Pakistan launched airstrikes against alleged militant hideouts inside Iran today (18), killing at least nine people (non-Iranians), as it retaliated for a similar attack days earlier by Iran.
Associated Press reported:
“The unprecedented attacks by both Pakistan and Iran on either side of their border appeared to target Baluch militant groups with similar separatist goals.
