ISLAMABAD -- Five Japanese nationals survived a brazen attack on their vehicle in Karachi on Friday, with Pakistani police saying they may have been mistaken for Chinese workers -- a frequent target of extremist groups.
The Japanese were traveling in three armored vehicles when one van was attacked by a suicide bomber as another militant shot at the van when it slowed for a speed bump. None of the Japanese citizens were injured, police said. Nikkei Asia, however, has seen official reports of the incident that state one Japanese national was injured in the attack.
