The first attack occurred in the early afternoon in the heart of Karachi when a motorcycle laden with explosives detonated next to the bus, Karachi police said. The blast killed at least 12 people and injured 50.
The bus was taking the Shiites, many of them women and children, to a procession marking the end of the annual 40-day mourning period commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, a grandson of the Prophet Muhammad.
