The Balochistan explosions 24 hours have once again highlighted the growing security challenges in Pakistan’s largest province. Over the past day, at least seven blasts were reported across different locations, creating widespread fear among residents. Although there were no fatalities, two security guards suffered injuries during one of the attacks. The incidents show a worrying surge in militant activity, especially around Quetta and Dera Murad Jamali.
A Wave of Blasts Across Balochistan
According to officials, the first attacks occurred in Quetta, where militants targeted a police checkpoint with hand grenades. Soon after, an IED detonated near a vehicle belonging to the Anti-Terrorism Department. Three more blasts followed, creating panic throughout the city.
Additionally, one explosion damaged a key supply line near Lohr Karez, which connects Quetta with other regions. Because of this, authorities had to inspect the area for further threats. Thankfully, no lives were lost.
Railway Track Targeted by IED
In another incident linked to the Balochistan explosions 24 hours, militants planted explosive devices on a railway track. The blast occurred shortly before a scheduled train arrival. As a result, the track was damaged and rail services were suspended. Authorities responded quickly and secured the area to prevent additional harm.
Attacks in Dera Murad Jamali and Sariab Road
Beyond Quetta, a police vehicle in Dera Murad Jamali came under a grenade attack. The device exploded near the patrol team but caused no casualties. Furthermore, another strike took place on Quetta’s Sariab Road. Armed men hurled grenades at a construction site, damaging equipment and injuring two security guards.
These back-to-back attacks have raised security concerns across the province. Authorities believe insurgent groups are attempting to intensify their operations.
New Grenade Attacks on Sunday Morning
Although Saturday’s incidents were alarming, insurgents resumed their activities on Sunday. Attackers on motorcycles threw grenades at Manzoor Shaheed police station. One grenade exploded, while another was defused by the bomb squad. Soon after, another grenade attack was reported near a police patrol post in the Kech Beg area.
No militant organization has claimed responsibility yet. However, officials suspect groups active in the region may be behind the coordinated attacks.
Security on High Alert
The series of Balochistan explosions 24 hours has prompted authorities to increase security across the province. Police and paramilitary forces have intensified patrols, while investigators are working to trace those responsible. As tensions rise, residents hope for swift action to restore stability.
