Security sources reported on Friday that two critically injured children had passed away from their wounds, bringing the devastating death toll from the vicious terrorist attack on a school bus in Khuzdar to six.
Five female students and one male student were killed in the attack, which was purportedly carried out by Fitna-ul-Hindustan-affiliated terrorists with Indian support.
Security sources claim that during treatment, two students who suffered serious injuries in the attack—Malaika and Haider—embraced martyrdom. Until their families have been notified, the identities of the other slain youngsters have not yet been made public.
Officials characterized the incident as a heinous attempt to undermine peace in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa by elements supported by India.
