Armed assailants abducted more than 20 labourers after attacking a gas company's camp along the national highway in Balochistan's Musakhail district, acording to a local media report.

Police sources reportedly said that the armed men opened fire on the camp before kidnapping over 20 labourers. Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident.

This attack follows another tragic incident in the Balochistan district of Panjgur, where seven workers were shot dead in a home in the Khuda Abad area.

The victims, all labourers from Shujaabad in Punjab, were relatives working on a construction project at the time of the attack.

The workers, who were asleep in the same room at the time, were attacked with automatic weapons. One additional worker was injured in the attack, while another, who was not at the house at the time, survived.
