The Baloch Liberation Army commanders, through a well-planned military strategy and aggressive advance, forced the ground and air reinforcements of the occupying Pakistani army to retreat after eight hours of fighting. In the clashes that continued for several hours, more than 30 enemy personnel have been killed and many injured so far, while the occupying forces have suffered heavy losses.
The BLA has been in complete control of the train and all the hostages on board for the past eight hours. Under the rules of war, these 214 hostages are considered prisoners of war and the BLA is ready to exchange prisoners. The occupying state of Pakistan is given 48 hours to immediately and unconditionally release the Baloch political prisoners, forcibly disappeared persons and national resistance activists.
The 214 Pakistani personnel, including military, paramilitary, police and intelligence personnel, are being held under full security and martial law by the BLA. If our demands are not met within the stipulated period or the occupying power attempts any military action during this period, all the prisoners of war will be killed and the train will be completely destroyed. The Pakistani army will be held responsible for this.
This declaration is final and unwavering. The occupying enemy is warned that the BLA is capable of fully, effectively and promptly implementing every decision it makes.
