The 2022 Panjgur and Naushki raids were a series of attacks on Frontier Corps Balochistan. BLA militants attacked the Frontier Corps Noshki Militia HQ in Noshki while they raided an Outpost in Panjgur.[2]

An investigation conducted by Pakistani authorities after the completion of clearance operation revealed that the BLA militants were guided and assisted from Afghanistan and India during the attacks. Pakistan, in the past, has accused India of supporting anti-Pakistan terrorist groups. The attackers also had state of the art equipment and weaponry obtained from abandoned US Military Caches in Afghanistan after the 2021 Fall of Kabul which included M-16, M-4, Night Vision Goggles, Bullet Proof vests, and many US-made sniper rifles and pistols.[3][4]
