On July 16, 2024, “Haroon Dakali,” a 31-year-old Baloch citizen from the village of Darkian, lost his life due to the explosion of an unexploded mortar shell in an army firing range in Iranshahr.
Haroon, who had visited his mother in the village of Darkian, unknowingly picked up the mortar shell, unaware of its dangers. This action led to an explosion, resulting in his death.
His grieving family has tried to communicate with military officials about the incident but has yet to receive any response.
This incident is another example of the negligence in clearing areas after military exercises. In recent years, several Baloch citizens have lost their lives due to similar incidents.
