On Sunday, two tragic bus accidents in Pakistan resulted in at least 36 fatalities and numerous injuries. The first crash involved a bus carrying Shiite Muslim pilgrims returning from Iraq, which fell into a ravine in Baluchistan due to brake failure, killing 12 and injuring 32 others. Hours later, another bus plunged into a ditch in the Kahuta district of Azad Kashmir, claiming the lives of 24 passengers, including women and a child, with no survivors reported. Rescue operations were hampered by the mountainous terrain, but local residents initially assisted in the recovery efforts. Both Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and President Asif Ali Zardari expressed their condolences to the victims' families and urged local authorities to provide support. This series of incidents highlights ongoing concerns about road safety in Pakistan, particularly for vehicles transporting pilgrims.
