Friday's suicide blast in Landhi area of Karachi has shaken the city, but amidst the tragedy, tales of heroism and resilience have emerged.

According to the report released by the bomb disposal squad, one of the terrorists was carrying at least 10 bombs, but it was the swift action of individuals and security measures that prevented further devastation.

One of the key elements in thwarting the attack was a bread supply van, which came in between the attackers and the targeted vehicles, absorbing much of the impact from the explosion and minimizing casualties. The bravery of security guard Noor Muhammad, who valiantly confronted the terrorist, played a crucial role in preventing a more catastrophic outcome.
