Eight people, including two policemen, were injured after militants today targeted their police vehicle in Pakistan's Dera Murad Jamali region in the troubled Balochistan province.

The police vehicle was targeted by an improvised explosive device in a motorcycle which was parked near the roadside from where the police vehicle passed.

The eight injured in the blast were rushed to nearby Naseerabad hospital for medical treatment and an emergency was imposed in the hospital. The windowpanes of nearby shops and houses were smashed due to the impact of the blast.

Yesterday, two traffic policemen were gunned down in Quetta in a targeted killing.
