TEHRAN, Feb. 27 (MNA) – At least four coal miners were killed and three others injured when unidentified armed assailants attacked them at a mine in the Khost area of Harnai district in the Balochistan province on Monday, officials said.

So far, no group has claimed responsibility for the attack on miners.

In the past, the ISIL terrorist group and the separatist rebels of the Baloch Liberation Army have claimed responsibility for deadly attacks on miners in Pakistan's Balochistan.

The attack took place while 7 people were killed and dozens of others were injured due to two bomb explosions in the last 48 hours in Balochistan.
