At least 29 Shia Muslim pilgrims have been killed after gunmen opened fire on a bus in Pakistan's southwestern province of Balochistan, Press TV reports.
Officials told Press TV that the gunmen riding motorcycles attacked the bus in Mastung area on Quetta-Taftan road of southwestern Pakistan on Tuesday.
About 30 other people were also injured in the shooting, according to officials. Most of the victims belonged to Hazara tribe of Shia Muslims.
The bus carrying Shia pilgrims was on its way from Quetta to the Iranian border when militants targeted it.
Every year millions of Muslims pilgrims flock to the holy shrines in the Iranian cities of Mashhad and Qom.
Pakistani security forces reached the area and started rescue operation following the incident.
The death toll is expected to rise further as most of the injured are said to be in critical conditions.
No group or person has claimed responsibility for the attack.
Pro-Taliban groups have launched a violent campaign against Shia Muslims, and appear to have widened their terror campaign in major Pakistani cities.
Several Shia religious gatherings have been targeted in different parts of the country over the past few months.
Shia sources say they make up one-third of Pakistan's population of nearly 170 million.
Since the 1980s, thousands of people have been killed in sectarian-related incidents in Pakistan.

Clashes between police and gunmen at an anti-government protest camp in central Iraq have left over a dozen people dead.
The violence came after security forces were deployed to dismantle the camp in the city of Ramadi in Anbar province. Police sources say the clashes broke out when gunmen opened fire on security forces. At least ten gunmen and three policemen were killed. The defense ministry says the decision to remove the protest camp came after a deal reached between the ministry, tribal leaders and local government. Now, there are also reports of heavy gunfire in the city of Falouja in the same province. Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki had repeatedly vowed to remove the one-year-old camp accusing protesters of stirring strife and sheltering al-Qaeda-linked militants.
