The Baloch National Army (BNA) is a militant organization based in the Balochistan region of Pakistan. It aims to promote the rights and autonomy of the Baloch people, who have long sought greater political and economic independence. The BNA emerged as a response to perceived injustices and marginalization faced by the Baloch community. The group is often associated with the broader Baloch nationalist movement, which includes various political and militant factions advocating for Baloch self-determination. The BNA has been involved in armed conflicts against state forces, leading to significant tensions in the region and drawing attention from international human rights organizations.
