Pakistan Balochistan Attack News: Gunmen have shot dead 20 miners in south-west Pakistan, sparking an uproar. Seven other people were injured in the attack. In this case, a police officer said that this is the deadliest attack in recent times in the restive Balochistan province. This attack has happened at a time when a big security summit is going to be held in the capital in the coming days.
Police officer gave information
Police officer Hamayu Khan Nasir said the gunmen surrounded the houses of people living near a coal mine in Duki district late Thursday night and then started firing indiscriminately. Most were from the Pashtun-speaking region of Balochistan. Three of the dead and four of the injured were Afghans.
Which terrorist organization carried out the attack?
No one immediately took responsibility for the attack. This is the area where a large number of separatist leaders live and demand independence. These people allege that the Pakistan government is unfairly exploiting the oil and mineral rich Balochistan at the expense of the local people. On Monday, a group called the Baloch Liberation Army said it had attacked Chinese civilians outside Pakistan's largest airport. Thousands of Chinese work in the country.
