According to local sources, during Eid prayers at Kardgap Eidgah in Mastung, 4-5 armed militants linked to the Baloch Liberation Army entered the gathering, forced attendees to sit at gunpoint, and addressed the crowd, effectively hijacking the religious observance. The incident is described as a psychological operations (psy-ops) style tactic, with messaging and methods that observers compare to those used by Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). The event has raised security and community concerns in the region, and investigations or official responses were ongoing at the time of reporting. No independent casualty figures were confirmed in the initial accounts.
