The government on Sunday (June 28, 2026) “categorically” rejected “baseless allegations” Pakistan have made about India being involved in an attack on a security installation in Karachi. “We have seen Pakistani reports making baseless allegations against India regarding the recent incident in Karachi. Saturday’s attack in Karachi’s Gulistan-e-Jauhar neighbourhood killed at least three and injured four personnel of Pakistan Rangers (Sindh), the country’s DGISPR had said. Following Saturday’s attack, Pakistan’s Information Minister Mohsin Naqvi had said, “These terrorists are normal terrorists. The BLA said it had carried out an attack on a Pakistani military camp in Ziarat, Balochistan.

The government on Sunday (June 28, 2026) “categorically” rejected “baseless allegations” Pakistan have made about India being involved in an attack on a security installation in Karachi.

“We have seen Pakistani reports making baseless allegations against India regarding the recent incident in Karachi. We categorically reject them. Instead of pointing fingers at others, Pakistan would do better to look inwards, take credible actions (against) the terror infrastructure on its territory and rid itself of its proclivity to rely on terrorism as an instrument of state policy,” said Randhir Jaiswal, official spokesperson of the External Affairs Ministry.

Saturday’s attack in Karachi’s Gulistan-e-Jauhar neighbourhood killed at least three and injured four personnel of Pakistan Rangers (Sindh), the country’s DGISPR had said. “The assailants, after a blast at main gate of the camp, attempted to breach the perimeter security,” it said.

Following Saturday’s attack, Pakistan’s Information Minister Mohsin Naqvi had said, “These terrorists are normal terrorists. India is supporting them.”

Multiple terror attacks rocked Pakistan this weekend that spread from Karachi to Balochistan where groups such as Jamaatul Ahrar and Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) were allegedly involved.

Throughout June, Pakistan has carried out operations in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan and Sindh regions against groups that it has linked with India.

The BLA said it had carried out an attack on a Pakistani military camp in Ziarat, Balochistan. In a message to the media, it vowed to continue such attacks.
