Soldiers of the Pakistani paramilitary forces cordon off the area of an attack on Wednesday in Karachi.

At least four people including three Pakistan Rangers personnel were on Wednesday killed in a series of blasts, including a suicide bombing outside the force’s headquarters here in southeast Pakistan.

A suicide bomber tried to enter the Rangers headquarters located in North Nazimabad area in Pakistan’s largest city.

When the motorcycle-borne bomber was stopped by security personnel at the gate he detonated his explosives-laden vest claiming the lives of two Rangers personnel and a private security guard.

Meanwhile, earlier in the day, an IED blast targeted a Rangers check post.

A second IED blast took place at the same spot a few minutes later claiming the life of a Rangers personnel.

Five others including policemen and Rangers were also injured.
