Gwadar is the hub of a major Chinese infrastructure project.
By Shaiq Hussain May 11 at 12:25 PM ISLAMABAD — At least three gunmen stormed a luxury hotel Saturday in Pakistan’s southwestern port city of Gwadar, killing one guard and battling security forces after all guests were evacuated.
The army spokesmen’s office said three terrorists had attempted to enter the Pearl Continental Hotel, opening fire on guards. It said all guests had been safely evacuated and the area was cordoned off while security forces blocked a hotel stairwell, where some attackers were hiding. Pakistani TV news channels quoted the home minister of Balochistan province, where Gwadar is located, as saying most guests had been evacuated and several people had been injured. A special anti-terrorism force was reported to be fighting the attackers.
