The Baloch insurgents who hijacked a Peshawar-bound passenger train in Pakistan's Balochistan province have released a video showing how they blew up the track to derail it before taking the passengers hostage. The video shows the Jaffar Express, which was carrying over 400 passengers, passing through Sibi city when a bomb blast on the tracks forces it to halt.
The video shows huge plumes of black smoke billowing from the engine and the first two compartments of the train, which was en route from Quetta to Peshawar. The video then shows the gun-totting militants taking the passengers hostage and deboarding them from the train.
