MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The Pakistani province of Balochistan has seen an escalation of insurgency in recent years, amid China's lease of the Gwadar deep-water port. The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) has previously claimed responsibility for several deadly attacks, highlighting the escalating security threat.
A bomb explosion near a railway station in the city of Quetta, located in the
Pakistani province of Balochistan, left at least 21 people dead and 30 others injured, the local media reported on Saturday.
The explosion occurred at 9:00 am (04:00 GMT) when a Jaffer Express train was scheduled to depart from Quetta to Peshawar, railway officials were cited as saying.
The incident appears to be a
suicide blast, but the investigation is still ongoing, local police officer Muhammad Baloch was cited as saying by the broadcaster.
The death toll from the explosion may reportedly increase, as several of the
