PESHAWAR, Pakistan: A bomb rigged to a rickshaw detonated in a crowded bazaar in northwest Pakistan on Tuesday, killing at least ten people. The explosion occurred in the Lakki Marwat district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, leaving more than two dozen others wounded.

The victims included two traffic police officers and a woman. While authorities believe security forces were the intended target, the blast caused extensive damage to nearby shops and impacted many civilian bystanders.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif condemned the attack as an attempt to disrupt national peace. No group has claimed responsibility.
