Karachi hit by huge explosion
news.bbc.co.uk

The southern Pakistani city of Karachi has been rocked by a huge explosion near the US consulate, with initial reports of four people being killed.

Several others are said to have been injured.

The blast is thought to have been caused by a bomb in a car placed near the US consulate building.

Relief work at the site has begun and it is feared the number of casualties may rise.

A recent car bomb attack outside the Sheraton hotel in Karachi in May killed 11 French nationals and three Pakistanis.

Pakistani police suspect the Sheraton bombing was the work of the al-Qaeda network.
