Аt least 35 people have been killed in an explosion in the northeast part of Pakistan, close to the capital Islamabad.
The blast was caused by a suicide bomber driving a motorcycle who crashed into a large group of people detonating explosives.
The attack took place near the four-star Mall Road hotel. Some 15 people have been wounded, BGNES reported.
Meanwhile, the UN announced that it was pulling out its foreign staff from Northwest Pakistan over the tense security situation, the world organization announced in a communique.
A car bomb attack in the city of Peshawar, the capital of the Northwest Frontier Province, last week left 134 dead or missing.
