Two bases of Balochi militant group Jaish al Adl in Pakistan were attacked on Tuesday [16/1/24], Iranian state media reported, a day after Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards attacked targets in Iraq and Syria with missiles. The attacks were launched on Pakistan through drones and missiles.
Jaish al Adl was formed in 2012 and has launched numerous attacks on Iranian security forces over the years. The organization operates mainly in southeastern Iran.
Due to the attack two children lost their lives. Pakistan foreign ministry in a statement said that “This violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty is completely unacceptable and can have serious consequences”. It is even more concerning that this illegal act has taken place despite the existence of several channels of communication between Pakistan and Iran.
