At least 24 killed in Pakistan in suicide bombing near railway track as two train carriages overturn and catch fire
2026-05-24
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] An explosives-laden vehicle next to rail tracks in the southwestern city of Quetta was detonated as a train passed by, overturning and igniting two of the carriages - which produced clouds of thick, black smoke.

An emergency was declared at the local hospitals receiving the wounded, with doctors reporting at least 20 are in critical condition.

The bomb went off in an area where security forces are usually stationed and was reportedly followed by gunfire.

Photos from the site show that several buildings were damaged, along with more than a dozen cars parked along the road - some of which were completely burnt out.

A mangled train carriage lay on its side as people clambered over the wreckage to find survivors.

People could be seen carrying blood-soaked victims on stretchers away from a derailed car, while armed security forces stood guard.
