MUSTUNG: At least three people have been killed and more than 15 injured in an explosion in Balochistan's Mastung district on Sunday, Deputy Inspector General of Quetta police Azhar Akram confirmed. He added that the number of casualties could rise.

The attack comes less than two weeks after three Levies personnel were martyred and as many injured when their vehicle hit a landmine in the province's Ziarat district.

Earlier that week, a Pakistan Army captain was martyred and two soldiers injured when their vehicle hit an improvised explosive device (IED) planted by terrorists in the Gichik area.

There has been an uptick in violence in the province, with several incidents of terrorism reported this year, targeting both civilians as well as security forces.
