Following the Shangla suicide attack in Besham, Pakistan, which targeted Chinese nationals working on the Dasu dam project, resulting in the deaths of five Chinese and one Pakistani national, a strong international and national response has been triggered. The Chinese Embassy and consulates in Pakistan, alongside Chinese officials including FM spokesman Lin Jian, have strongly condemned the attack, demanding a thorough investigation and asserting that those responsible will face consequences. Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif of Pakistan chaired an emergency meeting, attended by various federal ministers and military officials, to discuss the incident and its aftermath. Pakistan's military and civilian officials have vowed to conduct a joint investigation into the bombing, with Prime Minister Sharif ordering a joint probe and reviewing security arrangements for projects involving foreign nationals. Additionally, DNA testing will be performed on the remains of the suicide bomber, as Pakistan and China reaffirm their commitment to combating terrorism and ensuring the safety of Chinese personnel and projects in Pakistan. Ambassador Jiang Zaidong visited employees of the China-invested Dasu project following the attack.
