A suicide bomber in a three-wheel vehicle laden with explosives killed at least seven people and wounded 20 in northwest Pakistan, police said on Tuesday.
The blast comes days after another suicide attack saw a car bomb detonate at a checkpoint in Bannu before militants opened fire on police, killing at least 15 people.
“According to the initial reports, the suspected suicide attacker approached the two traffic police officers stationed at the checkpoint before blowing himself up,” senior police official Muhammad Sajjad Khan told AFP.

Pakistan’s foreign ministry on Monday summoned the top Afghan diplomat in the country after concluding that a deadly suicide attack at the weekend was “masterminded by terrorists residing in Afghanistan”.
Afghanistan’s Taliban government has repeatedly denied Pakistan’s accusations that Afghan territory was a safe harbour for militants.
The frosty relationship between the neighbouring countries has spiralled into deadly armed conflict in recent months, including Pakistani airstrikes on cities in Afghanistan.
