A devastating explosion occurred on a train transporting military personnel in Pakistan's Balochistan region.

The blast derailed three coaches and the engine, with two coaches overturned.

At least 20 people were killed and 70 injured.

The Balochistan Liberation Army claimed responsibility for the attack, but officials have not confirmed this.

The train was carrying service personnel and their families returning home for Eid.

A police officer and civil administration official confirmed the death toll, with fears it could rise.

Pakistan's Prime Minister strongly condemned the attack, offering solidarity with the people of Balochistan.
