A video recently released by the Baluch National Freedom Movement (BRAS), an armed separatist group operating in Baluchistan, Pakistan, shows a complex raid that took place on Dec. 16, 2021, in which two neighboring Pakistan military outposts were attacked and overran at the same time in the vicinity of Tump, Baluchistan.

The assault is initiated by a skilled marksman that neutralizes an unsuspecting Pakistani soldier who is likely a member of the Frontier Corps. The remaining Pakistani troops scramble for cover as the Baloch militants lay down suppressing fire as their maneuver elements move in to within grenade range.

A BRAs media outlet reported that 11 Pakistani service members were killed during the attack and additional troops were wounded. We are unable to verify those claims, but aftermath footage that we didn't include in our edit shows the dead bodies of at least three soldiers. Both outposts were looted of weapons and equipment.

The various Baluchistan insurgent groups are fighting for independence from Pakistan as they claim the Pakistan government offers their ethnic group no representation within the government, while extracting resources from their mineral rich province and selling out their ancestral lands to Chinese investors.
