A policeman was injured in a blast that occurred near the Western Bypass in Quetta on Tuesday evening. According to sources, the explosion targeted a police vehicle, resulting in one officer sustaining injuries. The injured officer was immediately transferred to a nearby hospital for medical treatment, and his condition is reported to be stable.
Security forces cordoned off the area following the explosion, while investigators combed the vicinity for clues. Authorities have not yet confirmed whether the blast was caused by an improvised explosive device (IED) or another form of attack.
This blast adds to the ongoing security concerns in Balochistan, which has seen an increase in insurgent activities in recent months.

The investigation is ongoing, and more details are expected to emerge as authorities work to determine the individuals or groups responsible for the attack.
