Unidentified gunmen ambushed a passenger bus traveling from Quetta to Punjab late last night in Balochistan’s Barkhan district. The attackers forced 13 passengers off the bus and opened fire, killing seven and injuring six others. All of the victims were reportedly residents of Punjab province.
No group has claimed responsibility for the attack yet. However, Baloch separatists have previously carried out similar attacks along this route, targeting Punjabi passengers.
