TL;DR Summary

The Balochistan Liberation Army's Majeed Brigade has claimed responsibility for the attack on Pakistan's second-largest naval air station, PNS Siddique in Turbat, citing opposition to Chinese investments in Balochistan. The assault involved heavy gunfire and explosions, resulting in casualties and prompting an emergency declaration at Teaching Hospital Turbat. This incident marks the latest in a series of attacks by the BLA in the region, following the termination of a ceasefire with Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan, and raises concerns about security in the context of China's investments in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.
