Quetta / Islamabad: According to information we are hearing from internal Pakistani sources, the situation in Balochistan is becoming increasingly fragile, with claims that large stretches of the province are no longer under the effective control of the Pakistan Army.
Our sources say security forces are facing mounting challenges in maintaining authority across remote districts, where local armed groups and separatist elements are reportedly expanding their influence. Movement of government officials is said to be restricted in several pockets, while highways and rural corridors are allegedly seeing frequent disruptions in Balochistan.

Residents in and around Quetta told our correspondents that deployments have increased in urban areas, even as control in interior regions appears to be weakening. Essential supplies and transport are also reportedly affected in some districts, adding to public anxiety.
Internal inputs further suggest that intelligence assessments within Pakistan are acknowledging a growing gap between official claims and the ground reality. While authorities continue to project stability, insiders say maintaining sustained control across Balochistan’s vast terrain has become increasingly difficult.
It is important to note that these developments are based on information emerging from Pakistani internal sources and local contacts. There has been no comprehensive public confirmation from the federal government so far. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and provide updates as more verified details emerge.
