Seven Pakistan army soldiers were killed in a targeted attack involving an improvised explosive device, as confirmed by Pakistan's military. The incident has further strained the tumultuous relations between Pakistan and India, following a prior setback involving an attack in Indian Kashmir.

Pakistan alleges the involvement of the Baloch Liberation Army, described as an 'Indian proxy,' in the attack that occurred in Balochistan, a strategically significant region. India's foreign ministry has remained silent, while international leaders urge both nations to de-escalate rising tensions.
