A motorcycle bomb killed two people and wou🍃nded five in Pakistan's southwest, a police official said Sunday. It's the latest unrest to hit Baluchistan province, where militants have tried to target a naval facility and a government building in recent weeks.
Nobody immediately claimed responsibility for Sunday's blast in Khuzdar, which is on the main highway connecting the provincial capital 🌠Quetta with the port city of Karachi in neighboring Sindh province.
Deputy Commi♑ssioner Muhammad Arif Zarkon said a woman and two police officers were among the wounded.
For years, Baluchistan has been the scene of a low-level insurgency by groups demanding independence from the central government in Islamabad. Although the government s🦄ays 💝it has quelled the insurgency, violence in the province has persisted.
Last Saturday, an improvised explos💦ive device killed one person and wounded 14, inc💙luding three soldiers.
