The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) has claimed it maintained control over Mach city in Pakistan and surrounding areas for the past 40 hours.

BLA said the area was taken into control under its ‘Operation Dara-e-Bolan'.

BLA spokesperson Jeeyand Baloch detailed a significant attack on a Pakistani military convoy comprising eighteen vehicles from Sibbi, reported The Balochistan Post.

The convoy, including FC (Frontier Corps) forces, police, Levies, and armored vehicles, was allegedly ambushed near the Gokurt Hotel on the outskirts of Mach.

BLA claimed the attack left at least four personnel killed.

Earlier, on Tuesday, the BLA reported maintaining control over Mach city for more than 24 hours, alleging that the Pakistani military had been confined to a small area of the FC headquarters, the news portal reported.
