The death toll from a blast at a mosque inside a police headquarters in northwest Pakistan today has risen to at least 47, a hospital spokesman says.
Muhammad Asim Khan from Peshawar’s Lady Reading Hospital says more than 150 people have been wounded, while senior government official Shafiullah Khan tells AFP that the death toll is expected to rise even further as bodies are still being pulled from the rubble.
