Suicide blast kills four in Pakistan tribal area
MIRANSHAH, Pakistan, July 20
A suicide bomber killed three civilians and a soldier at a checkpost in North Waziristan tribal area on Friday, the latest in a wave of attacks across the country, security officials said.
“There was a suicide attack at a paramilitary checkpost in North Waziristan today.
Four people were killed -- three civilians and one soldier -- and six injured, including three soldiers,” a senior security official told AFP.
The attack came a day after three suicide blasts in several areas of the country killed at least 51 people in apparent revenge for last week's raid on the pro-Taliban Lal Masjid in Islamabad.
