QUETTA: Three hand grenades have been recovered from the carriages of the Jaffar Express, which was targeted in a terrorist attack, according to railway police. Explosive material was found in the train carriages stationed at the locomotive shed at Quetta Railway Station and was successfully defused. Repairs on the damaged carriages of the Jaffar Express are in progress following the terrorist attack, railway officials said. The attack, carried out by the outlawed Baloch Liberation Army (BLA), resulted in terrorists blowing up train tracks and holding over 440 passengers hostage in a day-long standoff in a remote mountain pass in Bolan. The military successfully cleared the train, rescuing the hostages and eliminating 33 attackers. Prior to the operation, the terrorists martyred 26 passengers.
