Ten men were on the bus and were about to leave a vegetable market in the Hazar Ganji area when five men, who arived on two motorbikes, boarded the bus and opened fire.
“They killed a man outside the bus and others inside the bus. They were killed after they bought vegetables,” informed SSP Imran Qureshi.

The victims were reportedly Shias belonging to the Hazara community.
Police and security forces quickly arrived and the area was cordoned off.
