PESHAWAR, Pakistan (Reuters) - At least 30 people were killed and around 70 wounded in a suicide car bombing on a police post in Pakistan's northwestern city of Peshawar on Saturday, a senior police official said.

"The death toll may rise further as many people are still stuck under the rubble of the nearby buildings which collapsed due to the blast," he said.
