According to a Pakistani official, gunmen have ambushed a bus and killed 14 passengers on the highway in the country's southwest.

Axar.az reports citing Pakistani media that around 15-20 unidentified gunmen in camouflage uniforms reportedly stopped five or six buses traveling between Karachi and Gwadar, according to Dawn, a Pakistani newspaper.

At least 14 were killed, but two passengers managed to escape. Later they were moved to Ormara Hospital for treatment.

​According to Jehangir Dashti, a local official, it remains unclear who was behind the killings.

In early April, at least 16 people including one Frontier Corps soldier were killed and 13 others injured in an explosion in the Pakistani city of Quetta, near a residential area where minority Shiite Muslims live.
