Karachi Patel Hospital Blast Kills One, Minor Girl Injured

On Wednesday evening, an explosion in Karachi’s Haji Lemo Goth, situated behind Patel Hospital in Gulshan-e-Iqbal, resulted in the reported death of an individual. The police, confirming the casualty count, indicated that two people, including a minor girl, sustained injuries in the incident.

According to the East deputy inspector general, the blast was caused by an individual carrying a grenade, which subsequently detonated in his hand. The law enforcement official stated that the deceased person is suspected to be the one who was in possession of the grenade at the time of the explosion.

Moreover, Balochistan has seen multiple terror attacks today before tomorrow’s polls, including:

• Blast near JUI-F election office in Qila Saifullah
• Blast at ex-ministers election office in Pishin

The increase in terrorist incidents in Balochistan before the general elections speaks volumes of the continued criminal failure and incompetence of the caretaker governments.
