PARACHINAR, Pakistan (AP) — A hospital official says a pair of bombs that exploded in a busy market in northern Pakistan killed 23 people.

Dr. Zahid Hussain, who works in the main hospital in the town of Parachinar, said more than 100 people were wounded in the attack Friday.

Police spokesman Fazal Naeem Khan said the two bombs ripped through the main bazaar in Parachinar.

Khan said the bombs went off in two places in the bazaar as people were doing their evening shopping.

He said one bomb was believed to have been planted on a motorcycle. He said explosives experts are still examining the site.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack.
