The central region of Balochistan is facing ongoing threats regarding land use and resident displacement. Sarfraz Bugti, the Chief Minister of Balochistan, warned that if attacks on Pakistani forces were launched from orchards, the owners would be considered collaborators. He stated that the people of Mastung had only two options: prepare for displacement as internally displaced persons or watch their orchards be destroyed.
