In a shocking act of terrorism, terrorists belonging to the group Fitna-e-Hindustan opened fire on a passenger bus traveling from Karachi to Quetta, near the Namurgh Cross area of Kalat.
According to officials, the bus was carrying 48 passengers at the time of the attack. The incident left 3 people dead and 7 others injured.
Spokesperson for the Government of Balochistan, Shahid Rind, confirmed that the attackers were affiliated with Fitna-e-Hindustan, a known anti-state terrorist group.
The injured have been moved to the District Headquarters Hospital Kalat, where an emergency has been declared.
Security forces quickly reached the scene, cordoned off the area, and launched a comprehensive search operation to track down the attackers.
Shahid Rind stated that the attack was part of a coordinated campaign to destabilize the region and create fear among the people, especially targeting inter-provincial connectivity and public transportation.
Terrorist organization BLF’s Massacre in Zhob on July 9
This latest attack comes just days after a brutal assault carried out by terrorists of Balochistan Liberation Front (BLF) on July 9, 2025, in the Sra Daghai area of Zhob district.
In that incident, BLF terrorists stopped a passenger van, checked passengers’ ID cards, and abducted and executed 9 individuals in cold blood.
Security analysts see both incidents as part of a deliberate terror campaign aimed at targeting civilians to create hatred amongst communities and undermining peace in Balochistan.
