Quetta, November 10, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
Pakistani security forces reportedly suffered multiple casualties and material losses in a series of drone and improvised explosive device (IED) attacks across Balochistan’s Mastung and Kalat districts, while armed fighters also seized two commercial vehicles during a road blockade in Chagai.
According to local media reports citing sources, at least two drones struck the main military camp in the Khadkocha area of Mastung on Monday. Initial reports indicated casualties among Pakistani personnel and damage to the facility. The extent of the losses has not been independently confirmed.
In a separate incident, a vehicle belonging to Pakistani forces was reportedly destroyed in an IED explosion in the Marjan area of Kalat.
Meanwhile, armed fighters intercepted two commercial vehicles during a road blockade in the Nokchah area of Chagai, along the Quetta–Taftan highway, and seized them. One of the vehicles was reportedly carrying precious stones.
There was no immediate clarity about the identities of those behind these incidents, and no group had claimed responsibility for the latest attacks or the vehicle seizure.
The incidents followed attacks claimed by the Baloch Republican Guards (BRG) a day earlier in Kachhi district. The group claimed responsibility for killing five Pakistani security personnel and injuring several others in a drone strike and an ambush on a military convoy.
In a statement, BRG spokesperson Dostain Baloch said the group’s drone unit, named ‘Aamir Aero Guardians’, targeted a joint military and police camp in the Bagh area of Kachhi on Sunday, killing one personnel and seriously injuring another.
He further claimed that around two hours later, BRG fighters ambushed a military convoy in the Bolan area using rockets and other heavy weapons. The group claimed four personnel were killed, several others injured and military vehicles severely damaged. These claims have not been independently verified.
The BRG announced the formation of its drone warfare unit on October 30, claiming that it had already carried out a strike on a Pakistani military installation in Kachhi.
The latest incidents come amid an increase in reported drone attacks against Pakistani security forces in Balochistan. Both the BRG and the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) have claimed operations involving dedicated drone units.
The BLA earlier announced its aerial wing, ‘QAHR’ (Qazi Aero Hive Rangers), during the second phase of its ‘Operation Herof’, claiming attacks on Pakistani forces at several locations, including Gwadar Port.
