Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfraz Bugti has said that Indian-sponsored terrorists targeted innocent schoolchildren in a deadly attack in Khuzdar acting under the direction of Indian National Security Advisor Ajit Doval.
The assault, which took place earlier this morning, claimed the lives of at least three children and two adults, sparking outrage and grief across the country. The attack is believed to be a desperate move following the success of Operation Bunyanun Marsoos, which officials say dealt a significant blow to terrorist networks operating in the region.
Bugti said that India is promoting terrorism in Pakistan as a state policy and is spreading fear in Balochistan through its proxies. “Targeting innocent children is not just an act of terrorism; it is an attack on humanity,” Bugti said.

Following Pakistan’s strong and effective response to earlier acts of aggression, India has now resorted to underhanded and cowardly attacks, he stated. “India’s true face will be exposed before the world,” the chief minister vowed.
Bugti reaffirmed that Pakistan will uproot every form of terrorism and sabotage, adding that the people of Pakistan and its armed forces stand united against Indian conspiracies. He further said that attacks on soft targets highlight the moral bankruptcy of the Indian state.
Condemning the violence, Federal Minister Ahsan Iqbal expressed his sorrow and anger over the tragedy. Taking to social media, he stated:
"I am deeply saddened and outraged by the horrific attack this morning on a school bus in Khuzdar, which resulted in the loss of innocent lives, including three children and two adults. This act of violence is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families during this dark time. We will ensure that those responsible are brought to justice."
