Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir is in big trouble these days. Three major crises have come together in front of them – the old tension with India, the deadly attacks by BLA in Balochistan and the open war with the Taliban of Afghanistan. By 27 February 2026, the situation has worsened so much that Pakistan has declared open war on Afghanistan.
1. Tension with India – Kashmir’s old wound reopens
The Kashmir dispute between Pakistan and India has been going on since 1947. Pahalgam terrorist attack took place in April 2025, in which 26 people were killed. India accused Pakistan of providing help to terrorists.

India launched Operation Sindoor and launched missile attacks on Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. There were missile and drone attacks on both sides for four days. Finally the ceasefire took place on 10 May 2025, but the tension has not ended.
Now even in 2026, firing continues on the India-Pakistan border. Asim Munir says again and again – If India attacks again, Pakistan’s response will be very swift and terrible. Pakistan accuses India of helping BLA and TTP.
2. BLA attacks in Balochistan – big threat inside the country
Balochistan is the largest but poorest province of Pakistan. Here a separatist organization named Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) has been fighting for years.

In late January and early February 2026, BLA launched its biggest attack in Balochistan. At many places, police stations, banks, homes and military bases were attacked simultaneously. 31-33 civilians and soldiers were killed.
The Pakistani Army retaliated and claimed to have killed 145 to 216 BLA fighters. But the attacks are not stopping. Asim Munir’s army is accused of doing too much politics in Balochistan. Security is weak. Pakistan says that BLA is getting help from India and Afghanistan.
3. Open war with Afghan Taliban – the newest and most dangerous crisis
Pakistan says that TTP (Pakistani Taliban) hiding in Afghanistan carries out attacks in its country. Therefore, on 21 February 2026, Pakistan carried out air strikes in Nangarhar, Paktia and Khost of Afghanistan. Taliban took revenge. On 26-27 February, Afghan forces attacked Pakistani border posts.

Afghanistan claims – 40 Pakistani soldiers killed, 15 posts captured. He also claimed to have shot down a Pakistani jet. In response, Pakistan carried out more heavy bombing on Kabul, Kandahar and Paktia. Pak Defense Minister said that we are in open war with Afghanistan. Asim Munir had already warned Taliban – You will have to choose between Pakistan and TTP.
How are the three crises related to each other?
Pakistan says that India and Afghan Taliban together want to weaken Pakistan. It has been claimed that India helps BLA. Taliban gives shelter to TTP. Both of them together are carrying out attacks inside Pakistan. Asim Munir is now fighting on three fronts – India on the border, Balochistan inside and neighboring Afghanistan.
How are you now?
Heavy firing and bombing is going on on the Afghanistan border. Military operation continues in Balochistan. There is tension in Kashmir with India. There is also political instability in Pakistan. Asim Munir is the biggest commander of the army and defense of the entire country, but the pressure from three sides is so much that questions are being raised on his credibility and the security of Pakistan. This is the time of biggest test for Asim Munir. If all three fronts are not handled simultaneously, Pakistan may suffer huge losses.
