This is the best summary I could come up with:


At least 52 people have been killed and dozens more have been injured in a suicide bomb attack in Pakistan, officials have said.

The bombing happened near a Mosque in Mastung, a district in the province of Baluchistan, according to government administrator Atta Ullah.

A senior police officer, Mohammad Nawaz, was among the dead, Mr Ullah said.

At the time, people were gathering for a procession to mark the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad, which is a public holiday.

Interior Minister Sarfraz Bugti branded the attack a “very heinous act”.

In July, more than 40 people were killed in a suicide bombing in northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province at areligious political party’s gathering.
