At least 41 dead in Peshawar suicide attack

At least 41 people have been killed in a car bomb attack in the Pakistani city of Peshawar.

Many of the hundred people wounded are in a critical condition. A suicide bomber is believed to have detonated his explosives as he drove past a bus. The capital of the North West Frontier Province has been hit by numerous bombs in recent years. The attack comes as the Pakistani security forces are launching air and artillery strikes in the region in an attempt to undermine Taliban miltants.
