Pakistani forces mistakenly opened fire on civilians in Quetta’s Marriabad area, injuring two young men after misidentifying them as members of the Baloch armed groups.

According to sources, the incident occurred at an FC (Frontier Corps) check post in the mountainous region of Quetta. The forces fired upon the youth, seriously injuring Kifayat Ali Hazara and Tayyab Hazara, while Moeen Hazara survived the attack. The wounded individuals were immediately taken to a hospital for treatment, with one reported to be in critical condition.

The incident has sparked outrage among citizens, who have strongly condemned the forces’ actions. Many have criticized the Pakistani personnel for opening fire on unarmed civilians out of fear of armed groups, calling it an unjustifiable act.

Authorities have yet to issue an official statement regarding the shooting.
