Karachi bus explosion kills five
An explosion on a bus in Pakistan's largest city Karachi yesterday left at least five people dead and wounded 35 others, police said.
It was not immediately clear what had caused the blast in Sadar, a congested shopping area of Karachi, officials said, adding that a bomb disposal team was trying to determine whether it was caused by a bomb or an exploding compressed natural gas cylinder.
Karachi is in the grip of a long-running wave of militancy, political and sectarian violence.
