Islamabad:

The Islamic State group claimed a second deadly bombing Wednesday in southwestern Pakistan on the eve of a national election.

IS fighters denotated an explosives-rigged motorbike "in the middle of an election gathering... in the Killa Saifullah area in Balochistan" province, the group said in a statement on the Telegram messaging app, not long after claiming a similar attack in the province's Pishin district.
