Quetta: On Saturday, a bomb explosion occurred at a remote Sufi shrine in Pakistan killing 52 people and wounding 100 others with officials suspecting, ISIS claiming the attack.  

According to the reports, the explosion targeted parishioners contributing in a ritual at the holy place of the Sufi saint Shah Noorani, some 750 km south of Quetta, the provincial capital of restive southern Balochistan province.

"We realised that it was a bomb blast. Two of us rushed down and saw the bodies scattered all around -- mostly children. We also saw the drum beater dead and his exploded drum was lying nearby," alleged Hafeez Ali, a 26-year-old mechanic from Karachi.
