PESHAWAR, Pakistan -A roadside bomb targeting a police officer exploded in the main northwestern city of Peshawar on Thursday, injuring three people in the latest of a wave of attacks to strike the area since the army launched a major anti-Taliban offensive last month.
The bomb was detonated by remote control as Riaz Ulislam, the head of a police station in Peshawar, was passing by in his vehicle in a residential area of Peshawar near a school, said Hakim Khan, a police officer at the scene of the attack.
The blast injured Ulislam, his driver and a child who was passing by, Khan said. The explosion badly damaged the vehicle and a nearby electrical tower, he added.
Suspected militants have carried out a wave of deadly attacks in and around Peshawar since the army launched a major offensive in mid-October in the South Waziristan tribal area, where al-Qaida and Taliban leaders are believed to be hiding.
Last week, a suicide bomber killed 19 people outside a courthouse in Peshawar. In late October, a car bomb exploded in a crowded market in the city, killing at least 112 people, the deadliest attack in Pakistan for more than two years.






Just remember Europe if it weren't for the Americans you'd be speaking German.........or if America didn't enter the war...you'd be speaking Russian
did you know Ireland is underwater? Where is American AID? could it because Ireland is a white nation?
Obama is from Kenya..so if there were a disaster in that country I'll bet
the planes would be in the air loaded with free stuff from the bad people of America.
Obama needs to be nutered in next years elections.
or maybe a military coup to stop this American prez from ruining our country...of course this is just my worthless opinion.....but think about what he's done in such a short period of time. America's defict is so out of control the American people can never pay for it.
