2015 Karachi bus shooting
The 2015 Karachi bus shooting was a targeted attack that occurred on May 13, 2015, in Karachi, Pakistan, where gunmen, believed to be affiliated with a militant group, opened fire on a bus transporting Ismaili Shia Muslims. The assault resulted in the deaths of 45 individuals and injured several others, marking one of the deadliest sectarian attacks in Pakistan’s recent history. The incident, which drew widespread condemnation both locally and internationally, highlighted the ongoing sectarian violence in the region and garnered significant media attention in India, raising concerns over communal tensions across South Asia. The attack was seen as part of a broader pattern of violence against minority groups in Pakistan, prompting calls for enhanced security and interfaith dialogue in the region.
