A suicide bomber killed at least 59 people on Sunday at the main Pakistan-India border crossing – Wagah Border – the blast tearing through crowds of spectators leaving after the colourful daily ceremony to close the frontier.
The explosion, which wounded more than 120, came at Wagah border gate near Lahore after the “flag-lowering” ceremony, a display of military pageantry that attracts thousands of spectators every day and is popular with foreign tourists.
