Coal mine blast in Pakistan’s Balochistan leaves over 30 killed
A blast at a coal mine has killed at least 34 workers in southern Pakistan, the provincial disaster agency said, adding that rescuers were searching for more missing miners.
“According to information received from the deployed teams, 34x Dead bodies have been recovered,” southern Balochistan’s provincial disaster management authority said in a statement on Friday.
Deadly accidents are common in Pakistan’s coal mining industry, particularly in Balochistan, where many mines lack adequate ventilation, gas monitoring systems and other basic safety measures.
