Two low intensity blasts hit Quetta’s Chashma Achozai area close to the airport Saturday.
Improvised explosive devices (IEDs) planted by unknown miscreants went off in a deserted area close to the railway track, said officials. Security officials rushed to the site and cordoned off the area after the first explosion.
As officials gathered to investigate the site, another blast took place close by.
Chashma Achozai is located on Quetta’s airport road and is considered a peaceful neighborhood. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the blasts.
Quetta has in recent years witnessed numerous instances of terror including suicide explosions, sectarian killing and targeted killing of security officials.
