At least 52 people were killed and dozens more injured in a suicide bombing at a religious gathering in Pakistan. The blast occurred near a mosque during a celebration for the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad. The attack took place in the restive province of Balochistan, which borders Afghanistan. The death toll is expected to rise as many of the injured are in critical condition. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but Pakistani security officials suspect involvement from India's intelligence agency. This is the deadliest attack in Pakistan since January, when a suicide bombing in Peshawar killed 92 people.
