据官员透露，周日上午，巴基斯坦西南部城市奎达发生疑似汽车炸弹袭击，造成至少24人死亡、约70人受伤。
一名巴基斯坦俾路支省高级官员对哥伦比亚广播公司新闻表示，爆炸威力巨大，伤亡人数可能还会上升。
巴基斯坦总理夏巴兹·谢里夫在社交媒体上称此次袭击是“懦弱的恐怖主义行径”。俾路支省省长萨尔夫拉兹·布格蒂在社交媒体上表示，遇难者包括“无辜平民，其中不乏妇女和儿童”。
此次大规模爆炸于当地时间上午8点左右发生在法基拉巴德地区的一处铁轨附近，引发周边社区陷入恐慌。目击者称，强烈的爆炸震动了建筑物，震碎了窗户，并引发大火吞噬了客运通勤列车的部分车厢。据美联社报道，爆炸发生在安全部队通常驻扎的区域。
巴基斯坦联邦铁路部长哈尼夫·阿巴西表示，爆炸导致通勤列车的机车和三节车厢脱轨，另有两节车厢倾覆。现场照片显示，事发地冒出滚滚黑烟。画面中，准军事士兵和志愿者正从废墟中营救遇难者。
美联社将此次事件定性为自杀式爆炸袭击。目前政府正对袭击展开调查。
当地居民阿齐兹·汗对哥伦比亚广播公司新闻表示，爆炸发生时，许多民众正在火车站道口等候。他说自己的房屋“因爆炸而震动”，并伴有“一声巨响，震耳欲聋”。
“爆炸威力巨大，当场造成多人死亡，”汗说道，“排队等候的车辆中的煤气罐也发生了爆炸。”
总部位于阿富汗的俾路支斯坦解放军宣称对此次袭击负责。该组织主张俾路支斯坦应成为独立地区，其袭击经常以平民、士兵和警察为目标。美国国务院已将俾路支斯坦解放军列为外国恐怖组织。
奎塔是俾路支省的首府。这个石油和矿产资源丰富的省份是巴基斯坦面积最大但人口最少的省份，也是巴基斯坦俾路支少数民族的聚居地。该省内也有伊斯兰武装分子活动。
俾路支斯坦解放军已为该地区多起血腥袭击宣称负责。今年2月，该组织发动的协同自杀式袭击和枪击事件造成18名平民和15名安全人员死亡。2024年，该地区一处火车站发生自杀式炸弹袭击，造成包括士兵和铁路工作人员在内的至少26人死亡。
Suicide bombing in embattled Pakistan province kills 24, injures dozens more

An apparent car bombing rocked Pakistan’s southwestern city of Quetta on Sunday morning, killing at least 24 people and injuring around 70 more, according to officials.
A high-ranking Balochistan provincial officer told CBS News that the blast was severe and that the number of people killed and injured may rise.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif called the attack a “cowardly act of terrorism” on social media. Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfraz Bugti said on social media that “innocent civilians, including women and children” were killed.
The massive blast occurred near a railway track in the Faquir Abad area at around 8:00 a.m. local time and caused panic across nearby neighborhoods. Witnesses said the powerful explosion shook buildings, shattered windows and sparked a fire that engulfed parts of a passenger shuttle train. The Associated Press said the explosion occurred in an area where security forces are usually stationed.

Pakistan Federal Minister for Railways Hanif Abbasi said the blast derailed the engine and three coaches on the shuttle train. Two other coaches overturned, he said. Photos show thick black smoke rising from the scene. Paramilitary soldiers and volunteers were photographed trying to pull victims from the wreckage.
The Associated Press described the incident as a suicide bombing. A government investigation into the attack is ongoing.
Area resident Aziz Khan told CBS News that many people were waiting at the train crossing when the explosion occurred. He said his house “jolted from the explosion” and that there was a “huge bang, very loud.”
“Many people (were) killed on spot due to the intensity of the explosion,” Khan said. “Gas cylinders in queuing cars also exploded.”

The Balochistan Liberation Army, a group based in Afghanistan, has claimed responsibility for the attack. The BLA believes Balochistan should be an independent region, and its attacks frequently target civilians, soldiers and police. The U.S. State Department has designated the BLA as foreign terrorist organization.
Quetta is the capital of the Balochistan province. The oil- and mineral-rich province is the largest but least populated in Pakistan, and is a hub for the country’s ethnic Baloch minority. Islamic militants also operate within the province.
The BLA has taken credit for multiple bloody attacks in the region. In February, coordinated suicide and gun attacks carried out by the group killed 18 civilians and 15 security personnel. A suicide bombing at a train station in the same region killed at least 26 people, including soldiers and railway staff, in 2024.
