A suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden vehicle beside a railway track in southwest Pakistan on Sunday, killing at least 24 people and wounding more than 70 as a passenger train passed through the city of Quetta, officials said.
The force of the blast caused two carriages to overturn and catch fire, sending thick black smoke into the air. Several nearby buildings were badly damaged, and more than a dozen parked vehicles were destroyed, according to witnesses and images circulating on social media.
