Gunmen riding on two motorcycles opened fire on a bus at a small fuel station in southwestern Pakistan on Friday, setting off a large blaze and leaving 18 dead, a Pakistani official said. All 16 people on the bus, including eight women and three children, were killed, said the official, Abdul Mansoor Kakar. The vehicle had been parked next to fuel drums that ignited during the attack, starting a fire that engulfed the bus and killed two in a nearby car. The attack took place in the town of Khuzdar in Baluchistan Province. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, Mr. Kakar said.
