Meanwhile, the JamaatulAhrar (JuA), a splinter group of the TehreekeTaliban Pakistan (TTP), claimed responsibility for the targeted killing of Advocate Kasi and the subsequent
blast. JuA ‘spokesman’ Ehsanullah Ehsan vowed more attacks “until the imposition of an Islamic system in Pakistan”. The Islamic State (IS) group also claimed responsibility for the
suicide attack, Reuters quoted the IS’s Amaq news agency as saying. “A martyr from the Islamic State detonated his explosive belt at a gathering of justice ministry employees and Pakistani policemen in...Quetta,” the Amaq report said released from Cairo, Egypt. Following the
blast, the Chief of Army Staff (CoAS) General Raheel Sharif chaired a highlevel security meeting and ordered the intelligence agencies to initiate special combing operations to target those involved in terror attacks, said a tweet by InterServices Public Relations (ISPR) spokesperson, reports Daily Times. The Army Chief chaired the meeting, with the Balochistan Chief Minister, Provincial Chief Secretary and Commander Southern Command in attendance. ISPR quoted the Army Chief as saying that after their defeat in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, terrorists are shifting their focus to Balochistan. The attack is an attempt to undermine the improved security situation of Balochistan, and the effort is specially targeting the ChinaPakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), he said. All resources will be employed to control the situation.

The JamaaturAhrar (JuA), a breakaway faction of TehreekeTaliban Pakistan (TTP) who claimed responsibility for the suicide attack of August 8 Quetta hospital, claimed on August 16 that it had no links with DaeshIslamic States, whose leadership also said it was behind the attack, reports The News. JuA, which briefly declared allegiance to Daesh in 2014, said in an audio statement that its fight was solely against the Pakistani State and that linking it to transnational militant networks was wrong. "We want to make it clear that our movement has no connection to Daesh or al Qaeda," the group's leader, Omar Khalid Khurassani said. "Those in Daesh or al Qaeda or any other Mujahideen movement are our Muslim brothers. But we do not have any organisational link with any of them. With Daesh and al Qaeda we have never had an organisational link before, and even today we have no organisational link with them," Khurassani added.

The United States (US) State Department on August 23, while removing all ambiguities about its stance on the issue, categorically assured Pakistan that it did not support independence for Balochistan and is committed to Pakistan’s territorial integrity and distanced itself from India’s effort to stir an international controversy over the region, reports Dawn. “The US government respects the unity and territorial integrity of Pakistan, and we do not support independence for Balochistan,” said a State Department official in a statement. But the official also expressed US concerns about the human rights situation in the province. “We do have concerns about the human rights situation there, and have reported that for several years in our Human Rights Report,” the State Department official said, adding, “However, we have consistently urged all parties in Pakistan to work out their differences peaceably and through a valid political process,” the official added.
