Fitna al-Hindustan is a broad term used by officials to refer to banned Baloch terrorist groups, with the government claiming they act as proxies for India, which wants to destabilize Pakistan through hybrid warfare.
The banned Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) claimed responsibility for the attacks in a social media post, describing the coordinated assault launched on Saturday as the second phase of “Operation Heroof”.
