Bomb kills 16 in Pakistan’s market – Officials

A bomb hidden between bags of potatoes at an outdoor Pakistani market killed at least 16 people on Friday, half of them ethnic Hazaras, officials said, in an attack apparently aimed at minority Shi’ite Muslims.

“No fewer than 30 people were wounded in the blast in the southwestern city of Quetta, capital of Baluchistan province,’’ officials said. The attack came after a lull of no less than a year in attacks against Hazaras, though there have been isolated shootings.“So far, I have confirmation of 16 martyrs – eight belong to the Hazara community, seven others who worked here one is from the Frontier Constabulary,” Abdul Razzaq Cheema, Deputy Inspector General of Quetta, told newsmen.No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack.

Hazaras have been frequently targeted by Taliban and Islamic State militants and other Sunni Muslim militant groups in both Pakistan and Afghanistan.After a series of attacks, security forces started escorting Hazara buses to the market.Baluchistan is the focus of projects in the 57 billion dollars China Pakistan Economic Corridor, a transport and energy link planned to run from western China to Pakistan’s southern deepwater port of Gwadar.
