In a series of” organized attacks” in southwest Pakistan, where attackers targeted vehicle people based on their race, at least six people have been killed, according to police on Thursday.
A top municipal police official told AFP on condition of anonymity that jihadists had attacked passenger cars and security personnel in several Balochistan towns, killing at least five non-local passengers and a safety standard.
The bus drivers reportedly identified and identified non-local travelers before shooting them as they stopped them on main thoroughfares, according to the standard. Wooden gates were set up along important roads for vehicle searches by the extremists who operated in groups. At the time of the statement, some regions were also experiencing crime, the source continued.
No organization has claimed role, but hardliners in Baloch have recently launched attacks against both local residents and local security forces. Cultural Baloch militants ambushed a train carrying 450 travellers earlier this month, starting a two-day assault that left several people dead.
The state of Balochistan, Pakistan’s largest but least created state, has long struggled with rebellion because separatist groups demand more freedom and a larger share of the country’s resources.
