A suicide attack in Quetta, Pakistan, killed 70 people, mostly lawyers. The attack was claimed by the insurgent group Jamat-ul-Arar. In response, the Pakistan Bar Council called for a boycott of court activities, and schools and markets in Quetta were closed in protest. Increased security measures were implemented, and lawyers in Islamabad held funeral prayers and protested against terrorism. The attack occurred when lawyers gathered at a hospital where a colleague's body was taken after being shot. Jamat-ul-Arar has been responsible for several attacks in Pakistan in recent years.
