Between March 16 and 26, a series of suicide bombings in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan provinces of Pakistan resulted in the deaths of five Chinese nationals and a Pakistani driver. In response, Pakistan's Counter Terrorism Department has arrested multiple terrorists and facilitators, including the mastermind behind the attacks, Hazrat Bilal. The arrests were made following raids, with at least 12 suspects detained, including Afghan nationals. Pakistani officials have flown the bodies of the deceased to Beijing on a special plane. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has assured foolproof security for Chinese working in Pakistan, amidst concerns over safety prompting some Chinese workers to consider leaving. China has called on Pakistan to thoroughly investigate the incidents, bring the perpetrators to justice, and ensure the safety of Chinese personnel and projects in the country. The Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) is believed to be behind the attacks.
