Kalat: Unidentified assailants opened fire on a passenger coach in the Narmuk area of Kalat district, Balochistan, resulting in the deaths of three people and injuries to several others.
Multiple passengers were wounded in the attack. Police and rescue teams were immediately dispatched to the scene. The coach was en route from Karachi to Quetta when it came under fire.

Condemnations pour in
Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi strongly condemned the attack, labeling it the work of "Fitna-e-Hindustan" (a reference to India-sponsored militants).
