China’s foreign ministry has condemned a “terrorist attack” in Pakistan that killed five Chinese citizens, urging the South Asian nation to thoroughly investigate the incident and hunt down those responsible.

On Tuesday afternoon, a suicide bomber rammed a vehicle into a Chinese company bus carrying the victims to the construction site of the Dasu hydropower dam in northwestern Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, according to official statements and a Reuters report citing local police.
