Posted by Orange Blossom Special on Tue Mar 11 08:58:46 2025 You are forgiven if you have not heard of nation of Balochoistan of course. Your free palestein students, omar, talib, don't really care about everyones human rights and ignore them, so now they have to resort to train hijackings now.------- Armed militants have taken 450 passengers hostage and wounded the train driver during a 'terrorist attack' in Pakistan's volatile southwestern Balochistan province, officials said. The separatist Baloch Liberation Army has threatened to execute all the hostages it has in its custody if the Pakistani authorities attempt to intervene. 'Over 450 passengers onboard are being held hostage by gunmen,' Muhammad Kashif, a senior railway government official in Quetta, the capital of the province, told reporters. The train was trapped inside a tunnel after the attack, during which it came under fire and the driver was wounded, police and railway officials said. In a statement, the BLA claimed responsibility for the hijacking and said six military personnel had been killed in the gunfight. The group said they had taken hostages from the train, including security forces, with the exact number in their custody unclear. The Jaffar Express had been on its way from Quetta in Pakistan's southwestern Balochistan province to Peshawar in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa when it was fired on, officials said. A spokesperson for the Balochistan government said that the attack was an act of terrorism, adding that an investigation into it is underway. [we may never know their true motives] Pakistan's interior minister, Mohsin Naqvi, condemned the attack and said the government would not make any concessions to 'beasts who fire on innocent passengers'. [sounds like a promise to commit war crimes] Trains in Balochistan typically have security personnel on board as separatists have previously carried out deadly attacks on trains and security forces in the region. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14485553/train-hijacked-gunmen-passengers-hostage.html |
