It was deserved.

"A suicide bomber rammed a vehicle into a convoy of Chinese engineers working on a dam project in northwest Pakistan.., killing six people police said, the third major attack on Chinese interests in the South Asian country in a week. The first two attacks targeted a Pakistan naval air base and a strategic port used by China in the southwest province of Balochistan where Beijing is investing billions in infrastructure projects." "A blast on a bus killed 13 people, including nine Chinese nationals, in 2021." Reuters. A salute to the brotherhood of terrorists. Between China and Pakistan, "'All-Weather Strategic Cooperative Partnership' has grown into a towering tree with deep roots in the hearts of the two peoples. Chinese like to affectionately call the Pakistani friends 'iron brothers' while Pakistanis are used to describing Pakistan-China friendship 'as higher than mountains, deeper than sea, sweeter than honey and harder than steel'." CIIS. Too much honey between iron brothers explodes higher than mountains. "China has demanded a thorough probe into the deadly blast and security for its citizens after five Chinese nationals working on the Dasu dam project perished in a suicide bombing in Bisham." Dawn. "A Chinese company has halted civil works and let go of hundreds of workers at a hydropower project in Pakistan following a deadly suicide attack that claimed the lives of five Chinese nationals." ET. We Indians may be forgiven for enjoying this delicious irony. In 2017, China used its membership of the UN Security Council to block a bid by the US, France and Britain to list Maulana Masood Azhar, chief of Paksitan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) militant group, as a global terrorist. Azhar was behind the terrorist attack on Pathankot Air Force station in January 2016. Mint. In 2019, China protected Azhar from being listed as a global terrorist for the fourth time (BT) despite a suicide car bomb attack at Pulwama in Kashmir which killed 44 soldiers of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) on 14 February (wikipedia).  In 2022, "Beijing thwarted efforts to designate Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba leader Shah Mahmood as a global terrorist." TOI. In 2022, "On October 26 and 27, India hosted the United Nation's Security Council's Counter-Terrorism meetings," at which an audio clip was played of "Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander Sajid Mir directing terrorists in the attack on Chabad House in Mumbai" in the "November 2008 terror attacks in which 166 people were killed." In addition to Sajid Mir, China blocked sanctions on "LeT deputy chief Abdur Rehman Makki; JeM deputy leader Abdul Rauf, who is the brother of JeM chief Masood Azhar; deputy chief of the LeT front Falah-i-Insaniyat Foundation Shahid Mahmood; and LeT commander Talha Saeed, who is LeT chief Hafiz Said's son," wrote Sudha Ramachandran. The attack at Bisham could be a prelude. There could be more attacks on the Chinese in Pakistan, Afghanistan and in Xinjiang (BBC). Bastards deserve it.
