In Balochistan, rallies were also held with participation from provincial leadership and local communities.
Participants across all events paid tribute to the armed forces and martyrs, raising slogans in support of national defense institutions and expressing gratitude for what was described as Pakistan’s military success and regional stability role following the conflict.
