A suicide bomber on a motorcycle struck near a police team in the eastern city of Lahore on Monday, killing at least 26 and wounding another 54, many of them police officers. The outlawed militant group Tehrik-e-Taliban claimed responsibi­lity for the attack. Lahore has faced many terror attacks in recent years. A suicide bombing earlier this year killed 16 police officers, while another killed over 70 people during Easter last year.
