Navy tested missile near Gwadar

[Windjammer]

who's going to approach 6 KM near a ship or coast to attack? 6 KM range SAM might be used by ground soldiers against Helicopters BUT in naval context it doesn't make any sense. I hope it was 60 instead of 6.

Man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS or MPADS)
The missiles are about 5 to 6 feet (180 cm) in length and weigh about 35 to 40 pounds (18 kg), depending on the model. Shoulder-fired SAMs generally have a target detection range of about 6 miles (10 km) and an engagement range of about 4 miles (6 km), so aircraft flying at 20,000 feet (6,100 m) (3.8 miles) or higher are relatively safe.[6] The acronym MANPADS is commonly mistaken to have a singular form of "MANPAD"—this is incorrect, as even a singular unit is still a system and would have the final S in the acronym.

Pakistan navy test fires missiles

Karachi: Pakistan Navy on Saturday successfully test-fired several surface-to air-missiles during its ongoing naval exercises in the Arabian Sea, a navy statement said.
A spokesman of the Pakistan Navy said that the successful tests were carried off the Makran Coast in Balochistan province during the ongoing exercises which are named Sea Spark.
“All the targets were precisely hit by the missiles fired during the tests,” the spokesman said.
During the tests Admiral Asif Sandaila, chief of Pakistan Navy was also present.

Admiral Sandaila said that the successful tests would strengthen Pakistan’s missile operating capacity in land and aerial defence. The successful testing of missiles has also increased the operational capacity of Pakistan Navy, he said.
The naval chief said that Pakistan Navy was fully aware of its responsibilities for defending the naval territories of the country.
The admiral also urged the naval force to make optimum use of the resources, the nation was allocating to them by deferring their pressing economic needs.
The naval chief also visited the Jinnah Naval Base at Ormara to see the harbour defence exercises. He appreciated the spirit of the naval and other personnel engaged in the exercises.

Several missiles tested during exercise ,normally different version of
anti ship like air to sea surface, ssm and submarine launched are tested. One of the reported missile is surface to air with 6 km range, possibly by Pak marines.

If so, then perhaps Mistral Manpads.

If this is the shot fired, we're talking Anti-ship missile, likely c802 from F22P

If FM90N then the smoke would be forward of the superstructure, even if she were moving.
