Pakistan Bombing Kills 45

At least 45 people were killed and 90 more were wounded in a-suicide bomb attack near an administrator's office in Yakaghund, a village in the Mohmand tribal region of Pakistan on the border with Afghanistan. According to witnesses, the attacker, on a motorcycle, blew himself up near the office's gate and the blast ripped through a commercial area, destroying shops and cars. Many people were buried under the rubble. The explosion also took down part of a nearby prison's wall, giving prisoners an opening to escape. "It appeared as though the bike lost its balance and was about to fall, and just then there was a huge explosion," a solider on duty in the prison administrator’s office said.
