The Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) is a militant organization based in the province of Balochistan, Pakistan. Founded in the late 1990s, the BLA seeks greater autonomy and rights for the Baloch people, who they believe have been marginalized by the Pakistani government. The group has been involved in various attacks against military and civilian targets, aiming to draw attention to their cause. The BLA is considered a terrorist organization by the Pakistani government and some other countries. The conflict in Balochistan is complex, involving issues of ethnic identity, resource distribution, and political representation, with the BLA playing a significant role in the ongoing struggle for Baloch rights.
