On July 1, 2025, Iranian security forces opened fire on innocent and unarmed Baloch women in Gunich village in Karvandar Rural District in the Central District of Khash County in Balochistan. The unprovoked attack killed one Baloch woman, Khan Bibi Bamri, 40, a resident of Khash, and injured 11 others.
Local Baloch sources say that the other 11 injured Baloch women were: Madina Bamri, 24; Saba Bamri, 17; Esra Bamri, 18; Rahm Bibi Bamri, 32; Sanj Malek Bamri, 45; Asal Bamri, 20; Mohaddesa Bamri, 16; Mahtab Bamri, 50; Fatima Bamri, 26; Lali Bamri, 40; and Rayhane Bamri, a 21-year-old pregnant woman who miscarried after being beaten by officers and hit by a shotgun.

The Iranian forces, which suffered a military defeat under Israeli and U.S. airstrikes, retaliated after the ceasefire by massacring Baloch civilians. This attack is a clear example of the brutality of the Iranian forces, who have been weakened by aggression from powerful countries and whose crimes against Baloch civilians momentarily pause during such external conflicts.
The Iranian occupying forces – including the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force (IRGC-QF) and other intelligence agencies – have made life unbearable for the Baloch people for several decades. In the coastal regions of Balochistan, Iranian forces have been carrying out large-scale, undeclared operations. On the orders of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, the IRGC is harassing Baloch communities in Chabahar, Zahedan, Khash, and other coastal areas. Homes that have stood for centuries are being demolished to pave the way for a strategic plan that includes relocating the capital of Iran from Tehran to Chabahar.
The attack in Khash is yet another example of the collective punishment being inflicted by the Iranian occupying regime on the Baloch nation – a campaign that has intensified following the Iran-Israel war. In the wake of a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, Ayatollah Khamenei's regime has launched a brutal crackdown against the Kurds and Baloch in Iranian-occupied Balochistan. Baloch civilians are being abducted from their homes, killed in staged encounters, and detained without trial, in blatant violation of international law.
The Baloch May Extend Protests To A Nationwide Movement By Aligning With Kurds, Ahwazi Arabs, And Other Non-Persian Ethnic Groups
The July 1 killing of a Baloch woman and injury of 11 others has sparked a wave of outrage across Iranian-occupied Balochistan, with the Baloch nation rising in widespread protest. Reports of shutter-down strikes and road blockades are pouring in from various areas. The secular Baloch uprising against the Iranian occupying forces signals the emergence of a new revolution. If Iranian oppression continues unchecked, the Baloch may expand their resistance into a nationwide movement by aligning with the Kurds, Ahwazi Arabs, and other non-Persian ethnic groups – a movement that could ultimately lead to the fall of the Iranian regime and contribute to lasting peace and stability within the region.
