At least nine police officers were killed and 11 others injured in a suspected suicide blast in Pakistan’s restive Balochistan province
on Monday, authorities said, the latest in a string of recent attacks against security personnel in the South Asian nation. Kachhi Police senior superintendent Mehmood Notezai said a vehicle carrying policemen was targeted in the province’s Sibi district. “Preliminary evidence suggests it was a suicide attack,” he said, adding an investigation was underway. There has been no claim of responsibility for the attack so far.
The blast Monday was the third major attack against Pakistani security personnel in as many months, highlighting the rapidly deteriorating security situation in the country. At least four people were killed and 14 others injured in February after militants stormed the police headquarters in the southern city of Karachi. Pakistan’s Taliban, known as Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan , claimed responsibility for the attack, according to spokesman Mohammad Khorasani.
