Two policemen were killed overnight when a magnetic bomb attached to their vehicle went off in the Khuzdar district of Balochistan. Another two policemen are reported to be in critical condition, a local police official said on February 26. Hours later, at least four people were killed in an explosion in a busy market in the Barkhan district of the province.
