Local TV stations broadcast footage showing people running in panic around the hospital grounds. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the blast, which struck at the gates of the building housing the emergency ward, on the hospital grounds. Afridi said most of the dead were lawyers who had gathered after Kasi's body was brought to the hospital. A powerful bomb went off on the grounds of a government-run hospital in the southwestern Pakistani city of Quetta on Monday, killing at least 53 people and wounding dozens, police said. A Pakistani news channel reported that one of its cameramen was also killed in the blast.
