In Mastung district’s Dasht area, a powerful explosion detonated beneath the Quetta-bound Jaffar Express, derailing five to six bogies, with at least one overturning. The attack, likely via an improvised explosive device planted on the track, struck while the train was en route from Peshawar. Dozens of passengers—among them women and children—sustained injuries. Rescue and security teams responded quickly, evacuating the wounded to nearby hospitals and initiating repair efforts. The incident marks a continuation of militant assaults on Pakistan’s rail infrastructure, especially in volatile Balochistan. (PC: ANI)
