A blast targeting a school bus near Zero Point on the National Highway in Khuzdar has resulted in the tragic deaths of four children and two teachers, and left 38 others injured.
Confirming the incident, the Deputy Commissioner of Khuzdar stated that the explosion severely damaged the school bus, killing four students and two teachers. The injured children have been transported to the hospital for urgent medical care.
Police officials said the blast caused significant damage to the vehicle. Law enforcement and security personnel have reached the site and launched a search operation in the area. Authorities assured that further details will be shared with the media as they become available.
It is important to note that Balochistan has recently witnessed a rise in India-sponsored terrorist activities. Banned militant organisations have escalated attacks targeting innocent civilians. However, security forces have successfully thwarted several such plots in recent weeks.
