Militants attacked a Shi'ite mosque in Peshawar in northern Pakistan during Friday prayers, killing 20 people and wounding more than 40 others. Eyewitnesses and authorities said the attackers, wearing uniforms of a provincial paramilitary force, threw hand grenades and fired automatic weapons at people in the mosque before two of them blew themselves up. A third was shot dead by mosque security guards before he could detonate his vest.
