The latest attack on Frontier Corps (FC) headquarters in Nokundi has shocked the security system of Pakistan. The Balochistan Liberation Front (BLF), which claimed responsibility for the attack, has released the photo of female suicide bomber Zarina Rafiq alias Tarang Maho, who blew herself up at the main entrance.
Three bombs are visible in his jacket. After the explosion, the shelling continued for so long that the entire area of Nokundi was shaken. Security agencies have not yet released official details of casualties.
BLF took responsibility of the attack, the woman was a suicide attacker
No organization claimed responsibility in the initial hours of the attack, but later the Balochistan Liberation Front (BLF) claimed that one of its sub-units had carried out the heavy attack. The organization says the attack was carried out on a central compound used by foreign workers working at the Reko Dik and Sandak mining projects in Nokundi.

Releasing a picture, the organization said that the name of the woman who carried out the suicide blast is Zarina Rafiq alias Tarang Maho, who detonated herself at the entrance of the main FC headquarters located in Nokundi.
Why are Baloch women joining?
The woman’s involvement in the attack has once again raised the question that why are Baloch women participating in such dangerous attacks?
According to local human rights activists and analysts, the participation of Baloch women should not be seen as a suicidal move or economic pressure. He explains that these women adopt an extreme form of raising their voice and demanding justice for their missing sisters and brothers. Many families have been complaining about disappearances, enforced disappearances and human rights violations for years. There seems to be a growing feeling within the community that when voices remain unheard, some youth, especially women, decide to take extreme measures.
Wave of attacks in Balochistan in 24 hours
In the last 24 hours, attacks have intensified in many areas of Balochistan. Separatist groups have targeted security forces at many places through IED blasts, ambushes and attacks on check posts. Experts say that these incidents show that despite tight security arrangements, these groups have the ability to attack wherever and whenever they want. In recent days, internet services, transport routes and many cities were closed due to security reasons, but despite this the attacks could not stop.
