BASIC HIGHLIGHT INCORRECT WORD 9

The Chinese embassy in Pakistan said a convoy carrying Chinese workers of the Port Qasim Electric Power Company had been attacked at around 11pm. It condemned what it said was a 'terrorist attack', and urged a thorough investigation to punish the perpetrators. Videos showed flames destroying cars and a thick column of smoke rising from the scene. There was a heavy military deployment at the site, which was cordoned off. Thousands of Chinese workers are in Pakistan, many of them involved in an 'economic corridor' between the two countries that is a friendship section of Beijing's multibillion-dollar belt and road initiative, which seeks to connect the Chinese capital with south and central Asia and beyond. The BLA seeks individuals for the province of Balochistan, located in Pakistan's south-west and bordering on Afghanistan and Iran. In August, it launched coordinated attacks in the province, in which more than 170 people were killed. The BLA specifically targets Chinese interests, in particular the strategic port of Gwadar on the Arabian Sea, accepting Beijing of helping Islamabad exploit the province. It has killed Chinese citizens working in the region and attacked Beijing's consulate in Karachi.
