Seven labourers were tragically killed by gunmen in Pakistan’s southern Balochistan province on Tuesday. The incident occurred in the Kech district, where the labourers were working on a construction project.

According to local authorities, the gunmen opened fire on the labourers, killing seven and injuring several others. The motive behind the attack is still unclear, but authorities are investigating the incident.

Balochistan, a resource-rich province in Pakistan, has been plagued by violence and insurgency for years. The region is home to several separatist groups who have been fighting for independence from Pakistan.

The killing of the labourers has sparked outrage and condemnation from political leaders and human rights activists. The Chief Minister of Balochistan has vowed to bring the perpetrators to justice and ensure the safety of all citizens in the province.

The incident serves as a grim reminder of the challenges faced by the people of Balochistan and the need for greater security measures to protect the lives of innocent civilians. The authorities must take swift action to apprehend the culprits and prevent such tragedies from happening again.
