Death toll from Pakistan school bus bombing rises to 8 as Islamabad blames India
ISLAMABAD — The death toll from a school bus bombing in southwestern Pakistan rose to eight on Friday after three more critically wounded children died, according to the country's military, which blamed rival India for allegedly supporting rebels behind the attack.
The victims included two soldiers who were aboard the bus when it was attacked Wednesday in Khuzdar, a city in Balochistan province, where a separatist insurgency has raged for decades. A total of 53 people, including 39 children, were wounded in the attack.
