Pakistan: 'horror' explosion on Balochistan's school bus

According to The News Medium, many others were injured in the attack in Khuzdar district, about 250 km from Balochistan’s capital Quetta.

This region has long been overwhelmed by separatist violence and extremist activities.

It has been said that students were taken to a school run by the Pakistani army through the school bus. The bus was completely damaged due to the explosion. It was reported that there were 40 students on the bus at the time of the explosion.

The UN Children’s Fund has condemned the attack and requested to end the horrific violence.

In a statement published on Wednesday, the UN agency said that the children of Balochistan had gone on a common, daily journey and they were interested in education with their friends for a common day.

“However, they fell into this cruel violent behavior. The young life, dreams and the future are broken. Families are destroyed. The survivors have to carry these physical and emotional wounds.”

“Children are not the goal of violence, or it will not be allowed to happen.” UNICEF has expressed deep consent to the victim and their families.

UNICEF emphasized that going to school for children should never be a dangerous job.

According to the data yet, no extremist group has taken responsibility for the bus explodes.
