Another Day, Another Suicide Bombing

The Mirror:

A suicide bomber has killed at least 70 people as they gathered to mourn a murdered journalist in Pakistan.

The devastating attack took place at a hospital in Quettain, in the violence-plagued southwestern province of Baluchistan.

The bomber struck as more than 100 grievers, mostly lawyers and journalists, crowded into the emergency department to accompany the body of a prominent lawyer, who had been shot and killed in the city earlier in the day.

“There are many wounded, so the death toll could rise,” said Rehmat Saleh Baloch, the provincial health minister.
