A suicide bomber killed at least 13 soldiers and injured dozens more in a massive attack on a military convoy in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on Saturday. The explosion, near a bomb disposal unit in Mir Ali, also damaged nearby buildings, injuring six children. The Hafiz Gul Bahadur group, a faction of the Pakistan Taliban, claimed responsibility for the attack, one of the deadliest against security forces in the region in recent months. The incident highlights the escalating violence in the region bordering Afghanistan.
