Pakistan Iran Crisis Explained
Iran Attacks Pakistan I never dreamed that I would hear this news in 2024. But this is a fact and that too when Jaishankar meets the leadership of Iran, Pakistan is not going to sit quietly. Pakistan will also definitely give a reply back to this. In fact news has just come that he has already retaliate. The war has reached from Europe to Asia and now to our side.
Why Did Iran Attack?
After the Israel-Hamas war, if there is any country which has suddenly become very active, then it is Iran. Today Iran is in news because they have attacked our dear neighbor Pakistan. On Pakistan territory with missiles and drones. Some extremists of the group were hiding in Balochistan province of Pakistan. This is what Iran says, who attacked Iran last year in December 2023. In which 11 police officers lost their lives. This attack is a town near the border of Pakistan. It happened there. Jaysh al-Adl took responsibility for this attack and this is not an isolated incident. Last year, in the month of July, four police officers were killed by this group on the border of Pakistan and Iran.
Who is Jaysh al-Adl. It is a Sunni militant group which was formed in 2012. Today a group operates from Pakistan. For this group, Iran blames Pakistan and Pakistan blames Iran. The most dangerous thing is that IRCTC’s military actions have started in the South East of Iran, near the borders of Pakistan. Something similar to what the Russians did on Ukraine’s border before attacking them.
Pakistan’s Reaction?
At the time of the attack, the Pakistani PM was on a visit to the World Economic Forum and returned straight back to Pakistan after the attack. Pakistan is a democracy in name only. Not even a single PM of his has completed his 5 year term. Every PM of his is a puppet PM. Pakistani military has complete control over their politics. In such a situation, if Iran attacks Pakistan so, how will Pakistan keep quiet? In Islamabad, this attack was called illegal and there would be serious consequences? Pakistan says that it is not just terrorists but their citizens too who were targeted. It attacked their sovereignty. Pakistan has openly considered Iran its enemy and is not taking this attack lightly at all.
Similarly, Iran shares its border with Batlochistan. Balochistan has wanted to separate from Pakistan for a long time. Pakistan wants to tell this story to the whole world. This incident gives an excuse to Pakistan. Whatever action Pakistan takes in Balochistan to suppress their Balochistan Revolution, it can be imposed on Iran because if Pakistan does not stop Balochistan then in future Pakistan will break into pieces.
Side Effects Of War
Pakistan and Iran both are nuclear powers. The leadership of both is quite unstable. In a war there are no winners were are only losers. Because lives are lost on both sides. Resources are wasted on both sides. Relationships formed get broken. The whole world wants that Iran and Pakistan should not fight each other. And China has also said that this matter should not be escalated.
For some reasons, Iran has been trying to enter the war for a long time. Before this, Iran has also attacked Syria and Iraq. Iran actually controls a secret group called access of resistance. Because of Gaza the access of resistance is getting stronger again. Let’s just say they are finding a purpose. Antique best sentiment is becoming very strong in the Islamic world and this is dangerous.
