Tragedy struck in Gwadar as seven workers from Punjab fell victim to a terrorist attack, as reported by Headline PK, citing local law enforcement officials.

In the early hours of Wednesday night, terrorists launched a brazen assault on residential quarters near Fish Harbour Jetty in Sarband, Gwadar, unleashing indiscriminate gunfire. The vicious attack claimed the lives of seven individuals who were asleep at the time, while another sustained injuries.

Authorities identified the deceased and injured as residents of Sahiwal, Punjab. Urgent measures were taken to transport the bodies and provide medical care to the injured, who were promptly rushed to the hospital for treatment.

An immediate investigation has been initiated by the police, who are conducting raids to apprehend the perpetrators behind this heinous act.

This incident evokes grim memories of a similar tragedy last year when six laborers from Punjab were fatally shot and two others wounded by unidentified armed assailants in the Satelite area of Kech, Turbat.

According to police reports, armed individuals stormed the residence of a local constructor, Naseer, located 120 kilometers east of the Iran border, where they mercilessly attacked the laborers. Six lost their lives on the scene, while two others sustained critical injuries, underscoring the brutality of the assailants’ actions.
