ISLAMABAD -- Analysts are assessing how seriously Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan's efforts to maintain good ties with China may have been undermined in the wake of serious attacks by militants on security posts in the southwestern province of Balochistan early in the month.
On Feb. 2, the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA), a militant separatist group, attacked two posts belonging to the Frontier Corps, a paramilitary force, in fighting that lasted 70 hours.
