The United Nations (UN) and other international organisations have restricted their activities in Balochistan a day after gunmen shot dead two local employees of a UN agency, UN sources have said. Police said unidentified gunmen attacked a vehicle of the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) in Mastung town and killed two of its employees on Thursday.
Those killed included an FAO officer Muhammad Yousaf and his driver Abdullah. Another employee of the UN agency, Irfanullah, sustained serious injuries in the attack, police said. The UN and other international organisations advised their employees to restrict their activities in Quetta, and other major cities. The aid agencies, whoever, said they would not halt operations in Balochistan. No group claimed responsibility. But the authorities suspect militants are behind the attack.
