LAHORE, Pakistan – Two suicide bombers struck a popular Muslim shrine in Pakistan's second largest city late Thursday night, killing 35 people and wounding 175 others in the second major attack in Lahore in a month, the city's top official said.
The bombers struck as thousands of people were visiting the Data Darbar shrine, where a famous Sufi saint is buried. Muslims in Pakistan visit shrines and mosques in large numbers on Thursday and Friday nights.
Lahore has experienced a growing number of attacks as Taliban fighters along the northwest border with Afghanistan have teamed up with militant groups in the country's heartland once supported by the government.
