Seven workers were tragically killed in a terrorist attack in Pakistan's Gwadar port city on May 9. The assailants, unidentified gunmen, targeted a residential area near Gwadar Fish Harbour, leaving seven dead and one injured. Despite the severity of the incident, no group has claimed responsibility. Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfraz Bugti and Home Minister Mir Zia Ullah Langau condemned the attack, vowing to bring the perpetrators to justice. The government is conducting a thorough investigation into the incident. This tragic event follows a recent escalation of violence in Balochistan, including the abduction of nine bus passengers by militants in Nushki district and a foiled attack on the Gwadar Port Authority colony. The government remains committed to combating terrorism and ensuring the safety of its citizens.
