Unidentified Assailants Launch Multiple Blasts at DIG Office in Kharan, Pakistan
Local authorities reported that the injured, including two laborers working at the site, were promptly shifted to Civil Hospital for treatment. No fatalities have been confirmed, and the condition of the injured is reported as stable. Security forces swiftly cordoned off the area, launching a search operation to apprehend the perpetrators, who fled the scene. Police are collecting evidence to determine the nature of the explosives and the motive behind the attack.
Balochistan’s Provincial Minister Mir Shoaib Nosherwani, accompanied by the deputy commissioner and senior police officials, visited the hospital to meet the victims, condemning the attack as a “cowardly act” aimed at destabilizing the region. No group has officially claimed responsibility, though Balochistan has long been a hotspot for separatist insurgencies, with groups like the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) frequently targeting security installations.
The attack comes amid heightened tensions in Balochistan, following recent militant activities, including a deadly train hijacking claimed by the BLA. Authorities have vowed a robust response, with ongoing investigations to uncover potential links to regional separatist or foreign-backed groups.
