Nushki Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Hussain Hazara was recovered safely on January 31, 2026, in Nushki, Balochistan, a senior security official confirmed to The Khorasan Diary during the 30-minute reporting window from 7:15:54 PM to 7:45:54 PM UTC. A Government of Balochistan official also confirmed the recovery, following an earlier video published by the proscribed Baloch Liberation Army (BLA). The recovery comes amid ongoing security operations in Balochistan, where Pakistani forces had engaged BLA terrorists at Galangur post in Nushki earlier that evening using Thermal Weapon Sight, as reported by Mohsin_o2 on X in the prior window. This follows ISPR's confirmation of 92 BLA terrorists killed across the province earlier on January 31. Earlier reports indicated BLA control over parts of Nushki and clashes in surrounding areas including Quetta, Kharan, Gwadar, Mastung, and Dalbandin, per TBPEnglish on X. The BLA had published a video of Hazara's abduction earlier in the day, according to The Khorasan Diary.
