WorldA series of suicide attacks killed six in Pakistan Wednesday, unnerving citizens whose growing sense of security has been shaken by multiple blasts this week. “It was a suicide attack,” senior police official Sajjad Khan told AFP, adding that five people including the judge were injured. The attack came after two suicide bombers launched an attack on a government compound in Pakistan's restive tribal area earlier Wednesday, killing five people and wounding seven others. Wednesday's attacks came two days after a deadly suicide bombing rocked the Punjab provincial capital Lahore, killing at least 13 people and wounding dozens more. Last week the group vowed a fresh wave of assaults on government installations, and a spokesman told AFP Wednesday the attacks would continue.
