LAHORE: At least 10 people were killed and another 30 injured in a blast in an under-construction building in Z-Block of DHA on Thursday, police said.

DIG Operations Haider Ashraf said the nature of the blast was being investigated, adding that it could be either the generator blast or some other reason as the building was under construction.

He said that it was a powerful explosion due to which the windowpanes of a restaurant, nearby buildings and parked vehicles were shattered, while cars and motorcycles parked outside the plaza were also damaged.

TV footages showed bricks strewn in the popular commercial area. The shops surrounding the blast site were also damaged.

Provincial Minister for Specialized Healthcare and Medical Education, Khawaja Salman Rafique and Provincial Minister for Primary Healthcare Khawaja Imran Nazir visited the hospitals to inquire after the injured of the blast.

Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah said after the blast: “There was no reason (for terrorists) to target the building. I have been informed that plaza has not been inaugurated yet.”

People panicked as soon as the explosion was heard, and eyewitnesses described people evacuating buildings and running far away from the commercial area.

The report of the blast comes as cities across the Pakistan are on high alert after a wave of deadly terror attacks.

A day earlier, a massive urban counter-terrorism operation was announced by the military.

Government officially have declared it generator blast. Tweets have been shared in the same thread before.

No one has claimed responsibility either. Usually they're pretty quick to say that they've done it.

All of the people killed were inside the underconstruction building or very close to it. Some people and specific media are quoting people wrongly.

Check the videos in which u can see bodies lying very well 15 to 20 feet from the plaza which means they were killed by the shock wave and splinters and cylinder or generator explosion could not produce that much of explosive energy to produce that type of shockwaves only TNT or c4 can do that type of dammage.

Sharif govt just trying to save modi's a....s sonce they know public would pressure the army to take revenge from india and pak army never disapoint the nation.

Actually they do.
Gas explosion are slow explosion. Which means everything surrounding the explosion has enough time to absorb the blast and carry the energy outwards.

some kind of splinters are present in every underconstruction building. shock waves shows it is a cylinder explosion. Explosives never cause fire unless specially designed for such purpose nor they throw the bodies away in 1 or 2 pieces. Keema bn jata ha.

You did not say wrong but we the affected people do not want any advise from people of a country to whom we think is responsible for terrorism in Pakistan.
HOWEVER, It was already informed here three days ago, and market was sealed. Threat news was issued and now its duty of Police to take necessary actions in affected areas not ISI.
See everyone accuses your country for spreading terrorism Bangladesh Afghan India even your ties are sour with Iran too...all the muslim nations including your neighbouring countries who are muslim countries support India be it on Kashmir or any other issue ...You have only 1 friend left in the whole world i.e China ..however India has friendly relationship with entire world also ties with UAE and arab countries are on record high

Probably an Afghan national sponsored by RAW. Don't forget we have your monkey.
Kab tak raw mossad cia nsd ko blame karte rahoge mere bhai...pakistan mein itna terrorism fail gaya hai kuch andruni adminstration ka bhi zimedaari hona chahiye ...
