Tensions flared in the Middle East as Iran launched airstrikes in Pakistan’s southwestern Balochistan province, targeting militant group Jaish al-Adl. This follows Iran’s missile strikes in Iraq and Syria earlier in the week, further escalating regional hostilities.

While Iran’s state-aligned media claims targeted militant strongholds, Pakistan condemns the attack as an unprovoked violation of its airspace and reports civilian casualties, including children. Officials lodged strong protests with Iran, warning of severe consequences.

Jaish al-Adl claims the strikes destroyed homes of fighters' families, while local authorities confirm child deaths and injuries. The targeted region near the Iranian border was previously linked to a high-ranking militant killed in earlier clashes.

Concerns mount as this incident adds fuel to the already inflamed Middle East, where ongoing conflict risks destabilizing the entire region.
