Bomber kills 11 outside mosque in Quetta, Pakistan
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-south-asia-14727621

A bomb attack has killed at least 11 people in the south-western Pakistani city of Quetta, hospital officials say.

The suspected suicide car bomb exploded in a parking area as hundreds of people were leaving a mosque after Eid prayers, a senior police official said.

Police found the remains of the suspected attacker in his car. About 20 other people were injured. Most of the victims were Shia Muslims.

Pakistan is celebrating the festival of Eid after the fasting month of Ramadan.
