However, no loss of life was reported.

In another incident, unidentified bike riders threw a grenade inside women’s Apwa College near Karimabad. The grenade struck a college wall, hence not causing any casualty.  Similarly, another grenade attack near a school in North Nazimabad left a child injured.
