Obama condemns deadly terror attack in Pakistan

None

President Barack Obama is strongly condemning what he calls the "outrageous" terrorist attack in Pakistan that killed at least 45 people.

 

Authorities say a female suicide bomber lobbed hand grenades, then detonated an explosive belt at an aid center Saturday. In a statement, Obama says the killing of innocent civilians is, in his words, "an affront to the people of Pakistan." Police believe it was the first time that Islamic militants have sent a woman to carry out a suicide attack in Pakistan. (AP)
