Coordinated attacks across Balochistan kill 10 security officials, triggering a major security response as investigators probe the networks behind the violence.
A wave of coordinated attacks hit Balochistan, with security forces reporting the killing of 10 officials while confronting militants in multiple locations.
The assaults, described as synchronized by local authorities, underscored the scale of the challenge facing security forces as they clash with militants linked to ongoing unrest in the region.
