TRENDING — Suicide car bomb kills 24 in Pakistan train attack: Balochistan separatists claim responsibility
A suicide car bomb targeting a passenger train in Pakistan’s Balochistan province kills at least 24 people and injures more than 70, as the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) claims responsibility for the attack. The explosion occurs near Quetta, the provincial capital, when an explosives-laden vehicle detonates beside the railway track as the train passes, overturning two carriages and igniting a fire .
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif condemns the attack as a "heinous bomb explosion" and extends condolences to the victims’ families . Local authorities confirm the train was carrying military personnel and their families, though reports vary on the exact number of casualties—ranging from 23 to 30 dead and 50 to over 100 injured .
The BLA, a separatist group active in Balochistan, has repeatedly targeted security forces and infrastructure in the region. This attack follows a similar suicide car bomb on a military train in Balochistan last year, which killed 30 and injured over 100. The group’s insurgency, driven by demands for greater autonomy and resource control, has escalated in recent years, with rail and road networks frequently targeted to disrupt state operations.
