Bolan Pass

Earlier this month, the BLA hijacked a train in Bolan Pass, seizing hundreds of passengers.

Authorities claimed they were militants killed after the Bolan Pass train hijacking, though this could not be independently verified.

In the depths of central Pakistan's Bolan Pass, a pocket of wilderness so remote that there is no internet or mobile network coverage, the nine-coach Jaffar Express ground to a halt.

A major railway bridge washed away between Kolpur and Mach in Bolan Pass, cutting off Quetta, the capital of southwestern Balochistan, from the rest of country for indefinite period, officials said.
