(NSFW) Death Toll Reaches 52 in Balochistan Suicide Bombing Yesterday
Published 1 years ago
Devastating footage released from the Mastung district of the Balochistan province of Pakistan captures the moment a suicide initiated improvised explosive device was detonated in a large crowd of civilians who were gathering to worship the birthday of Islam's Prophet Mohammad.
Currently, the death count has risen to 52 civilians killed with another 70 to 130 people being reported as seriously injured in the blast. While no organization has taken credit for the attack at this time, it is believed the attack originated from Taliban controlled Afghanistan and is linked to either the Taliban or ISIS-K.
The Pakistani government does not believe that the Balochi Nationalist movement is responsible for the attack as it does not fit their usual profile. The organization is not known for conducting attacks when there is a possibility that civilians could be hurt.
