In Dera Murad Jamali, a remote-controlled explosive device struck a highway police vehicle on patrol near Qadir Kot within the jurisdiction of Sadar Police Station. The explosion left three officers injured. They have been identified as Naik Muhammad Bugti, Ghulam Murtaza Mangi, and Hawran Khan Punjabi. The wounded officers were rushed to the Civil Hospital for emergency medical treatment.
According to sources, the attack occurred during routine patrol operations.
In a separate incident in the Johan Cross area of Kalat, two consecutive explosions targeted a bomb disposal squad and foot patrol units. The blasts resulted in both personnel casualties and material damage.
