Quetta bomb blast

Published February 21, 2020

ONCE again Quetta is bleeding after a lone suicide bomber caused an explosion claiming the lives eight people including three members of the law enforcement agencies. This is not the first time that terrorist attacks have taken place in Balochistan or its capital.

The people of Quetta have had enough and demand security rather than political leaders who only look after themselves.
