At least five Chinese nationals [7] and one Pakistani were killed in a car bombing March 26 in Pakistan's northwest Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. The victims, employees of Wuhan-based engineering firm Gezhouba Group Co, were en route to the Dasu hydropower project on the Indus River [14]. It was the third attack [8] on Chinese interests in Pakistan in a week. No group has claimed responsibility for the car bombing, but the two previous attacks were claimed [9] by the separatist Baloch Liberation Army (BLA)—including an assault [10] on the Chinese-funded strategic port of Gwadar [11].
