Train Station Blast Kills 26 in Pakistan; Thousands Rally to Demand Release of Former PM Imran Khan
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Pakistan, a bomb blast killed at least 26 people Saturday at a
railway station in Quetta, the capital of Balochistan province. The
separatist group Balochistan Liberation Army claimed responsibility for
the attack.

In other news from Pakistan, thousands of supporters of jailed former
Prime Minister Imran Khan rallied over the weekend to call for his
release. Khan's supporters have been protesting his imprisonment on what
they say are politically motivated charges, as well as the disputed
results of February's elections.
