Suicide Bomber Kills 22 in Pakistan

A suicide bomber killed twenty-two people in Hangu, Pakistan.

Friday's blast injured another forty-eight, when it struck a market outside two mosques.

One of the mosques was Shiite and the other Sunni, making it difficult for investigators to decide who it was aimed at.

The anti-Taliban Sunni Supreme Council meets at the mosque there, so that could have been the target.

No one has claimed responsibility for the attack, likely trying to avoid backlash for killing their own people as well.
