Two people have been killed in a targeted attack on a Chinese convoy at Pakistan's largest airport, Jinnah International Airport in Karachi. The incident occurred as the convoy was leaving the airport, highlighting ongoing security concerns in the region. Authorities reported that the assailants opened fire on the vehicles, leading to immediate casualties.

The attack has raised alarms regarding the safety of Chinese nationals working on various projects in Pakistan, particularly as part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). This initiative, which involves significant Chinese investment in infrastructure development, has often been targeted by militant groups.

In response to the incident, security measures are being intensified around key locations associated with Chinese interests. Both the Pakistani government and Chinese officials have condemned the attack, calling for thorough investigations and enhanced security protocols to protect foreign nationals.

This attack is part of a broader trend of increasing violence targeting Chinese citizens in Pakistan, prompting fears of a potential escalation in tensions.
