Officials say a bomb blast has killed at least eight people in Pakistan's northwestern tribal region.
Friday's explosion rocked a crowded bazaar in Khyber, home to a major supply route for NATO troops in neighboring Afghanistan.
Authorities say at least 14 people were wounded when the bomb exploded near a shop.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack.
Pakistani tribal areas bordering Afghanistan are a known sanctuary for Taliban and al-Qaida-linked militants.
Security in the Khyber region is considered a top priority for Washington, since it is part of NATO's supply route into Afghanistan.
Some information for this report was provided by AFP, AP and Reuters.
