Balochistan: Hundreds of protesters belonging to Pakistan's ethnic Hazara community blocked a key roadway in Quetta on Monday, as they staged a sit-down demonstration along with the coffins of the ten coal miners slain in Sunday's attack by the self-proclaimed Islamic State (IS; ISIS/ISIL).

The protesters are refusing to bury their dead until the government meets their demands to catch the miners' killers and to form an independent commission to look into the persecution of the Hazaras, who are predominantly Shia Muslims and have been subjected to repeated deadly attacks over the past 20 years.

The miners were singled out in an attack by gunmen on a coal mine near the town of Machh, some 50 kilometers (31 miles) from Quetta, in southwestern Pakistan's Balochistan province.

Over the past years, multiple attacks on the Hazara community have been attributed to IS, a Sunni militant group.

The authorities are still tracking down those responsible for the deadly attack, with Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan stating on Twitter on Sunday that the "families of the victims will not be left abandoned" by the government.
