Bombing in Quetta, Pakistan Leaves 64 Dead, Others Injured

A remote-detonated bomb in a truck exploded near a market in Quetta, Pakistan on Saturday, killing at least 64 people.



More than 180 people were injured in the blast at the crowded market.



The Sunni militant group Lashkar-e-Jhangvi have since taken responsibility for the bombing, as did they for the January bombings that killed 92 people.



Most of the deceased were Shi’ites, who police say are the continuing target of the militant group.
