In a traffic accident in Dashtiyari County, two Baloch Sukhtbars were injured.
According to Kolbarnews, on Thursday, August 8, 2024, two Baloch Sukhtbars were injured in an accident involving two Sukhtbari vehicles on the road between Plan and Dashtiyari County.
As of the time of this report, the identities of the injured Sukhtbars have not been confirmed.
Sukhtbari is considered an unconventional and hazardous job that many Baluch people in Baluchistan are forced into due to the lack of suitable and stable employment. Accidents, vehicle rollovers, and direct shootings by military and security forces are some of the dangers that Sukhtbars face.
According to reports from Baluch activists, in the first six months of 2024, at least 133 Baluch Sukhtbars have died from shootings by military forces, traffic accidents, and vehicle fires, with another 80 injured in these incidents, including nine children.
