Security guard shoots and injures 2 Chinese nationals in Karachi

A security guard recently opened fire on two Chinese nationals in Karachi, Pakistan, injuring both individuals. The incident occurred at a dental clinic in the city's Saddar area. The guard reportedly fled the scene after the shooting, which left the victims in need of medical attention but in stable condition, according to local reports.

Authorities are investigating the motives behind the shooting, with some initial reports suggesting personal disputes or potential targeted attacks against Chinese nationals, who have increasingly faced security concerns in Pakistan. Chinese nationals are often involved in infrastructure and business ventures in Pakistan under projects like the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), making their safety a key focus for both countries.

Security measures for Chinese citizens in Pakistan have been a recurring issue amid political tensions and past attacks targeting foreign nationals.
