Pakistan: Police say bomb blast in hospital kills 26

Published: 08.19.08, 17:06 / Israel News

A suicide blast outside the emergency gate of a hospital crowded with Shiite Muslim mourners in Pakistan's volatile northwest killed at least 26 people and wounded 35 Tuesday, police and government officials said. The motive for the blast in Dera Ismail Khan appeared to be sectarian.

 

The attack occurred a day after Pervez Musharraf stepped down as Pakistan's president, adding to uncertainty about the new government's approach to tackling extremist violence. (AP)
