Suicide Bombing Kills 5 Including 3 Children on School Bus in Balochistan

A suicide bombing targeted a school bus carrying students to the Army Public School in Khuzdar, Balochistan, killing five people, including three children, and injuring more than 30 others. The attacker used a vehicle laden with over 30 kilograms of explosives to ram into the bus near Zero Point, causing significant casualties and prompting swift security responses. Pakistani officials, including military and provincial leaders, blamed India and its proxies for orchestrating the attack to destabilize Balochistan, allegations that India has denied, calling them politically motivated and baseless. The bombing drew condemnation from Pakistan's Prime Minister and President, who vowed to bring the perpetrators to justice, while no group has claimed responsibility yet. The incident has intensified security measures in the region, which has long been affected by separatist insurgency and cross-border tensions. The attack highlights ongoing violence in Balochistan and the complex geopolitical disputes involving Pakistan and India.
