Pakistan’s Jaffar Express narrowly escaped an explosion after insurgents detonated explosives on its track in Balochistan’s Nasirabad, a day after services resumed. The frequently targeted train has faced multiple attacks this year, including a deadly March hijacking by the BLA
The Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) claimed that it seized control of the train by derailing it, killed six security personnel and took over 100 passengers, including active duty personnel, into custody. However, there was no independent confirmation of their claim
