Some interesting reports coming out of #Afghanistan over the past few days:

- roughly 2,000 #Taliban suicide bombers have been moved to the #Iran|ian border since the end of May.
- #ISKP has also started moving their fighters to northern #Afghanistan, according to sources within an anti-#Taliban group. They are being moved to #Badakhshan, #Takhar and some others.

The story of the last one year is in front of us all and we all know that I don't need to repeat it, but I want to highlight some things here so that you can compare the trap laid by Imran Khan with today's situation. Who are in the closed street and in whose
hands is the spread!
When #Imran Khan was going to reach Pindi by taking a long march, General R. Bajwa was very nervous and he had very little time left!
In regime change, Bajwa was promised an extension in London that after removing Imran Khan, you will be given an extension!
After that Imran Khan had to clear the way for Nawaz Sharif by disqualifying him and again Nawaz Sharif had to be qualified with Imran Khan!
In the meantime Imran Khan was to be put in jail and the party was to be divided into pieces.

1/ 🚨 Allegations of biased journalism surface against @BBCUrdu in their coverage of the #Balochistan conflict. Critics argue the news organization exhibits a Punjabi bias, leading to distorted reporting. Thread 👇📰
2/ Human rights violations and the genocide of Baloch nation by the Pakistani army and ISI are reportedly downplayed by BBC Urdu. Instead, they focus on portraying the Baloch's response as "Iranian terrorism." Is there a hidden agenda?
3/ "Punjabi racism" is said to influence BBC Urdu's reporting on the Balochistan conflict and the Baloch movement, raising concerns about the news organization's integrity and commitment to journalistic ethics.

سردار عبدالرحمن کھیتران کون ہیں ؟
شاید عبدالرحمن کھیتران جیسا شاطر اور ظالم سردار بلوچستان کی تاریخ میں کبھی رہا ہو ۔یہ بلوچستان کا بے تاج بادشاہ ہے ۔  ان کا علاقہ بارکھان ہے اور وہ خود کو کھیتران قبیلے کا نگہبان تصور کرتے ہیں ۔
#Barkhan
#Balochistan
یہ اپنے آپ کو حب الوطن سردار کہتے ہیں اور تقریبا ہر دونمبر کام میں ملوث ہیں ۔ جب ڈاکٹر مالک بلوچستان کے وزیراعلی تھے تو سردار نے پولیس والوں کے ساتھ بدمعاشی کی پولیس نے ان کے گھر پر چھاپا مارا اور جناب گرفتار ہوئے اور جب تک ڈاکٹر صاحب وزیراعلی رہے یہ جناب جیل میں رہے ۔
بلوچستان کی سیاسی اشرافیہ ہو یا ایف سی کے افسران ، تمام لوگوں کے ساتھ انھوں نے اپنے تعلقات اچھےرکھے ہیں اور آج تک کوئی بھی ادارہ اس کھیتران سردار کی سلطنت کو نقصان نہ پہنچا سکا ۔  اپنے قریبی دوسرے بلوچ قبائل بزدار ، لغاری, مری اور بگٹیوں کے ساتھ کوئی بھی خونریزی سے گریز نہیں کرتے

Who is Sardar Abdul Rehman Khetran ? A thread

Perhaps there has ever been a cruel Sardar like Abdul Rahman Khetran in the history of Balochistan. He is the uncrowned king of Balochistan. He is chief of Khetran tribe.His territory is Barkhan Balochistan.
#Barkhan
#Balochistan Image
He considers himself as Hibul watan Sardar and involved in almost every illegal activity. When Dr. Malik was the Chief Minister of Balochistan, he was arrested when he attacked some police officers, he remained in jail as long as Dr. Malik was the Chief Minister.
Be it the political elite of Balochistan or the officers of FC, he has maintained good relations with all the people and till date no institution could harm the kingdom of this Khetran Sardar.He doesn't avoid any bloodshed with other Baloch tribes Buzdar,Leghari,Murri and bugti.

Pakistan have to revise it's killer policies for #Balochistan. Post officials that know Balochistan and it's people. Posting of high official with no background with Balochistan lead to disputes.
I'm predicting that if we wouldn't revise our policy for Balochistan

We will lose Balochistan.I'm not just writing but it is fact. Same condition was with Dhaka.

A source closely connected to detained #Baloch insurgent leader Gulzar Imam’s family said they r under tremendous pressure to convince Imam to hold a press conference against a neighboring country. "Imam,so far, has refused,"he says.

“Imam's wife has been moved to ISB.”
But what does Gulzar’s arrest mean?

Gulzar Imam, leader of the recently formed Baloch Nationalist Army (BNA), was trapped and arrested in Turkey in late April by Pakistani intelligence agencies. He was extradited to Islamabad in late August or early September.
Iman's family has refrained from commenting publy. However, on Tuesday, his BNA confirmed his arrest. After Dr. Allah Nazar & Bashir Zaib, Imam is a top known militant. He has been very active in the Makran region, where China is engaged in building ports, airports, and roads.
