Karachi: Two Chinese nationals were fired at by unidentified assailants on a motorcycle in Pakistan’s Karachi on Wednesday. Both of them have been shifted to a civil hospital in Karachi.
Speaking on the incident, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian called the incident “an isolated case”. “We have full confidence in the Pakistan side’s protection of Chinese citizens and property in Pakistan,” news agency Reuters quoted him as saying.
The incident comes two weeks after the IED attack on a bus carrying Chinese engineers to the Dasu dam site in Upper Kohistan in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on July 14. At least 13 people, including nine Chinese nationals, were killed in the incident.
