On a tragic Friday, Pakistan was gripped by sorrow as Balochistan and Hangu provinces were jolted by a series of explosions, shattering the tranquility and claiming the lives of 55 people while leaving over 50 others severely injured. The devastating events unfolded in the Mastung district of Balochistan, where a suspected suicide blast near Madina Mosque on Al Falah Road disrupted a gathering celebrating Prophet Muhammad’s birthday for Eid Miladun Nabi. This appalling incident, a gruesome interruption during the religious procession, extinguished the lives of 52 individuals and wounded 50 more. Among the victims was Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Nawaz Gashkori, who met a heroic end on duty, his life snuffed out by the explosion near his police vehicle.
