In Pakistan, at least three people, including a policeman, were killed and 20 others injured in two separate bomb blasts in restive Balochistan province, police said. In the first incident, a policeman was killed and 15 others were injured when a blast occurred at a mosque in the Kuchlak area of the province’s Quetta district last evening.
In another incident, two people were killed and five injured in a bomb blast in a marketplace near Umar Farooq Chowk in Khuzdar town yesterday. A senior police official said the blast took place when there was a crowd, including women and children in the market for Eid shopping.
No organisation has claimed responsibility for these incidents. However, in recent weeks, there has been a surge in terror attacks by banned outfits and terrorists in the province in which security forces and installations have also been brazenly targeted.
