    Pakistan coal miners kidnapped and killed in IS attack

    The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for the killing of 11 coal miners in the western Pakistani province of Balochistan.

    They were kidnapped by militants and killed near the coal mine on Saturday.

    The victims were members of a minority Shia community, the Hazara, repeatedly targeted by extremists because they are followers of Shia Islam.

    Prime Minister Imran Khan has condemned the attack as an "inhumane act of terrorism".
