At least 20 dead in Pakistan car bombing

At least 20 people were killed and 75 others injured after a car bomb exploded at a gas station in the Pakistani city of Faisalabad on March 8.

Police said the device caused several gas cylinders at the station to explode, destroying cars and buildings.

Officials warned the death toll could rise further as people were still trapped under the debris.

The city of Faisalabad has rarely been targeted by militants and is a key hub for Pakistan's textile industry.

Some unconfirmed reports said the gas station where the blast took place was near the offices of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency.
