QUETTA: At least four paramilitary troops were injured in a blast near Mastung on Monday, days after a suicide bombing killed over 20 people and injured many others including Senate Deputy Chairman Abdul Ghafoor Haidri.
According to Geo News, a vehicle of the Frontier Corps (FC) was targeted in the blast that was apparently caused by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED).
The injured were taken to a hospital for treatment and heavy contingent of FC and police were dispatched to the area. No one claimed the responsibility for the attack.
On Saturday, militants from a banned organization shot dead 10 laborers near Gwadar.
Defence Minister Kh Asif on Sunday said the killing of labourers near Gwadar, the Mastung blast and other such recent incidents were attempts to destabilise the country.
These attacks are being carried out to sabotage the development projects like the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. .
“If we put all these incidents on a canvas, we will see they intend to hinder progress,” he added.
