A suicide bomber set off an explosive vest during a wedding celebration in northwest Pakistan on Friday, killing at least seven people and injuring 25, police said.
The attack occurred at the home of Noor Alam Mehsud, a pro-government community figure, in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province’s Dera Ismail Khan district, close to the border with Afghanistan, local police chief Adnan Khan said. The victims were taken to a hospital, where several of the wounded were reported to be in a critical condition.
