パキスタンで列車ハイジャック、武装集団が人質を取る
A militant group in Pakistan says it has taken 214 hostages after hijacking a train. The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) attacked the Jaffar Express, stopping it in a tunnel. The train was traveling from Quetta to Peshawar when it was attacked.
The group claims it has killed 30 military personnel and is holding security forces as prisoners. It says civilians were allowed to leave safely. The Pakistani government has not confirmed these details.
