A bomb planted on a motorcycle exploded in Pakistan's Balochistan region on Monday, leaving at least two people dead and 11 others injured, media reports said.
Barkhan Deputy Commissioner Abdullah Khosa told Dawn News, “The explosive material was planted in a motorcycle parked in the main market of Rakhni, Barkhan district. It resulted in the death of two people and injured 11 others.”
Four of the injured were in critical condition and were immediately taken to a hospital in Dera Ghazi Khan, Khosa said.
He said that nearby shops, buildings, and one car were also damaged by the blast.
“An emergency has been imposed in all hospitals across Barkhan following the blast, while police, Levies and Frontier Corps (FC) personnel reached the site of the incident and began collecting evidence,” he said
In March, an improvised explosive device (IED) attached to a motorbike went off in a market in Balochistan’s Khuzdar district, leaving four people dead.
