In Pakistan, at least 54 people were killed and 200 injured Sunday as explosions rocked a political rally in the northwestern Bajaur district, which borders Afghanistan. The deadly blast was triggered by a suicide bomber during a gathering of the conservative Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl party, which is part of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s ruling coalition. The bombing came amid mounting insecurity ahead of elections planned for November. No one has yet claimed responsibility for the attack, though police said the Islamic State group could be to blame.
