The locals of Machh Friday lauded security forces of the country for swift action against the terrorists who tried to target Balochistan’sMachh area.
In a harrowing incident on January 29, 2024, terrorists launched a brutal attack on the Mach region of Balochistan, initially targeting security forces and later taking civilians and hotel staff hostage.
The shocking assault left local residents injured and scarred, with heart-wrenching revelations emerging from the victims.
The terrorists, numbering ten, attempted to strike security forces before seizing control of ‘MashaAllah Hotel’ in Machh, holding civilians, workers, and drivers hostage. Tragically, they ruthlessly shot laborers and set fire to property and trucks belonging to the local community.
Swift and courageous action by the Pakistan Army and FC Balochistan averted further catastrophe. A daring rescue operation was executed, resulting in the sacrifice of two FC soldiers, Lance NaikRahmatullah and SepahiZaman, who valiantly rescued local injured citizens and hostages.
