ISLAMABAD: Renowned journalist Syed Talat Hussain on his social media platform X said that assessments show Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) attacks were designed for online propaganda.
Talat Hussain has quoted security sources as saying that the recent attacks by the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) in Balochistan appeared to be armed operations, but in reality they were “content-producing operations.”
In a statement released on X, Talat Hussain said that the aim of these attacks was not to achieve any military victory but to create propaganda videos and convey a specific narrative to the public through social media.
He said that according to security sources, the patterns of such attacks are being analyzed to accurately assess potential threats and strategies in the future.
Talat Hussain said that assessments shared with media persons show that despite mobile data being shut down in many areas, the BLA managed to upload videos of their attacks using satellite uplinks specifically portable broadband terminals capable of 1 Mbps uplink speed and 38 hours of standby time.
