A car bomb explosion has killed at least 30 people outside a crowded market in northwest Pakistan. The bomb tore through a busy traffic intersection on Tuesday in the city of Charsadda, north of Peshawar, the capital of Pakistan's North West Frontier Province (NWFP). More than 40 other people were wounded in the blast. Hazrat Ali, a shopkeeper wounded in the blast, said the explosion came from a car parked near his shop. "I was buying something before closing my shop. A car was parked on the other side of the road and all of a sudden there was a huge blast," he told the AFP news agency. "There was smoke and darkness everywhere. I passed out."
