QUETTA: Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javaid Bajwa has arrived in Quetta to chair a high level meeting in the provincial capital
At least 15 people including the personnel of the Pakistan Army were killed and over 40 others wounded when a powerful blast hit an on-duty army truck at Pishin bus stop in Quetta on Saturday.
