yes man!!

Pakistanion nay Pakistan ki qadar nai ki! elites nay Pakistan ka rape kia awaam janwar ban gaye!

Allah SWT imtahaan or azmaish se guzar rahey hein … it’s kind of “bhal safai ka waqt”

Allah SWT azmaish mein surkhuro farmaye (Ameen)

might be an LPG
LPG don't explode that much... CNG cylinder explodes if leak occurs as 1) it was already compressed 2) the combustion mixture is in gaseous state. Don't believe in movies type explosions of Air/Liquid Fuel mixture.

But I think the bus was of diesel engine. As Gas is not only limited to Northern Pakistan but also, the mileage will be low (large CNG stations network required). Plus, engine cannot produce as much power to climb the mountains with heavy load.

LNG cylinder can provide same performance as diesel engine, and its filling stations are many. However, i wonder why Army allowed LPG bus? I know LPG Rickshaws are banned in Cantt area in Lahore etc.

Did Chinese bring/import that bus from China?

Terrible news.
You'd think we'd be monitoring routes used by foreign engineers and workers traveling to far flung areas, or even within cities, considering how often they've been targeted before. (French engineers, another incident with Chinese engineers in Karachi and many more). There ought to be cameras on these routes (on opposing peaks) to monitor the entire route.
Though news reports are conflicting atm, but nonetheless.

No ballbearing or shrapnel marks on the bus? Nor any sign of flames?

it is really painful to hear all this. now we can not protect our foreign friends. We condole with our Chinese families and friends who lost their dears in this tragic incident.
we really need to sort out our priorities. all our resources are being wasted to target our own people. while our enemy is busy hurting us the most.
will they stop? no, they will not. what we have to do is uncover their hideous face and negate their nefarious designs and protect our interests.
Condemnation does not help. high sounding words will bring any change in the minds of our enemy. we have to retaliate in the same coin.
Where are our top-ranking agencies? what are they doing? They were not made for persecuting our people. they were created with one goal to hit and hunt down the enemy before it messes with the nation.

At least 10 persons, including six Chinese engineers and two Frontier Corps personnel, died and several others were injured on Wednesday in an "attack" near the Dasu hydropower plant in the Upper Kohistan district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Initial reports from officials appeared conflicting; however, Adviser to the Prime Minister on Parliamentary Affairs Babar Awan on the floor of the National Assembly termed it a "cowardly attack" and said that it would "not divert attention from the special initiatives between Pakistan and its neighbours".
Condemning the attack, Awan said that he will ask Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed to give a briefing on the country's security situation and take this house into confidence regarding the incident.
Special Assistant to the KP Chief Minister on Information Kamran Khan Bangash said that the incident had claimed the lives of six Chinese nationals, two FC personnel and two locals.
A high level delegation has left for Upper Kohistan, he said in a statement, adding that officials will shortly inform the people and the media of the ground realities. "The media is advised to avoid speculating on the matter," he said.
Bangash said that a large number of security officials were deployed to protect Chinese nationals. Those who are in critical condition are being shifted via helicopter, he said. A large number of Rescue 1122 ambulances and officials have reached the spot, he added.
Beijing asks Pakistan to investigate incident
Meanwhile, China asked Pakistan to thoroughly investigate the incident.
Condemning the attack, Foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian urged Pakistan to “severely punish” the perpetrators“ and "earnestly protect the safety of Chinese nationals, organisations and projects” in the country.
Conflicting reports
Soon after the incident, Upper Kohistan Deputy Commissioner Arif Khan Yousafzai told Dawn.com that it took place early in the morning around 7:30am when a coaster was carrying over 30 workers, including Chinese engineers, from the Barseen camp to the plant site.
He said other than engineers, Frontier Corps personnel and local labourers were also aboard the bus when an explosion – the cause of which has yet to be ascertained – took place.
Meanwhile, the Water and Power Development Authority (Wapda), in a statement, termed the incident an "accident".
The Wapda spokesman did confirm that employees of a Chinese company were travelling in the bus, adding that rescue efforts were under way at the site of the incident and the injured were being shifted to a hospital.
He added the site had been cordoned off by police and Rangers.
The injured were being shifted to Dassu Rural Health Centre, officials said.
A senior police officer told Dawn.com that it was unclear what had caused the incident, adding that mobile networks are not functional in the area which was making it difficult to get information.
"At the moment we are not clear what exactly happened, whether it is blast or an accident," the official said, adding that once police complete initial investigation, the situation will become clear.
He said KP police chief Moazzam Ansari has left for Upper Kohistan on a helicopter.

The images are unrelated, apparently from a separate landslide incident.

Incompetent government. It is yet to ascertain exact nature of the incident even though hours have passed since it has happened

Foreign office is saying it's an accident while ministers are condemning the attack

Clowns are ruling this country
