Pakistan's Military Operations in Balochistan and KP Raise Civilian Safety Concerns
Pakistan's military has intensified operations in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, reportedly killing 74 militants, including 35 in North Waziristan's Mir Ali. However, human rights groups express concern over civilian casualties, displacement, and lack of independent verification of deaths. The use of heavy armor, including tanks in civilian areas, has raised fears about civilian safety and accountability. Reports highlight enforced disappearances and killings linked to security forces, prompting debate over the balance between counterterrorism and protection of innocent lives.
