Pakistan Blames Indian-Backed Proxies for the Terrorist Attack
At least six people, including three children, lost their lives and several others were injured in a tragic bomb attack targeting a school bus in the Khuzdar district of Balochistan on Wednesday morning.
According to a press release issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), “Initial reports confirm that three innocent children were martyred, and multiple others sustained injuries.”
The ISPR strongly condemned the incident, attributing the attack to Indian-backed terrorist proxies. “Having failed on the battlefield, Indian proxies are now resorting to despicable and cowardly attacks to spread terror and instability in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,” the statement said.
Referring to the unsuccessful “Operation Sindoor,” the ISPR stated that Indian-backed militants, under pressure from military and law enforcement operations, are now targeting civilians, particularly vulnerable groups such as children.
The military media wing condemned the use of terrorism as a tool of state policy by the Indian government, calling it “abhorrent” and reflective of a “lack of morality and disregard for fundamental human values.”
The ISPR vowed that the perpetrators, facilitators, and masterminds behind this cowardly attack would be relentlessly pursued and brought to justice. “The ugly face of Indian-sponsored terrorism will be revealed to the world,” the statement declared.
It further affirmed that the Pakistan Armed Forces, with the unwavering support of the nation, remain fully committed to eradicating Indian-backed terrorism in all its forms.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif also denounced the attack, calling it a blatant act of terrorism sponsored by India. Expressing deep sorrow over the loss of innocent lives, he extended condolences to the families of the victims and directed authorities to ensure swift medical treatment for the injured and to bring those responsible to justice.
President Asif Zardari echoed the condemnation, describing the attack as a grave violation of human rights and expressing sympathy with the bereaved families.
Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi also condemned the bombing near Khuzdar’s Zero Point, expressing profound grief and offering heartfelt condolences to the families of the deceased children.
