At least 34 people were killed in two separate bus accidents in Pakistan on Sunday. The first accident occurred when a bus carrying Shiite Muslim pilgrims returning from Iraq fell from a highway into a ravine in southwest Pakistan, resulting in the deaths of 12 men. The driver lost control of the bus due to brake failure while passing through Lasbela district. Hours later, 23 people were killed when a bus fell into a ravine in Kahuta district in the eastern Punjab province.
