These doubts concern the efficiency of General Asim Munir. The reason is the huge casualties within the armed forces. The figures show that over-all, 2025, will be bloodier than the previous years. The year-on-year fatalities among the Pakistan security establishment are expected to increase.
The figures indicated the reported casualties in Pakistan forces. However, the number of casualties in Pakistan is actually much higher.
The ongoing BLA operation in Bolan is one of the biggest attacks against the Pakistan security forces. The BLA recently announced its reorganisation.
