A suicide bomber killed seven people near a major air force complex in north-west Pakistan, while an explosion killed 17 on a bus heading to wedding elsewhere in the region.

A car bomb in the north-west's main city wounded 15 people.

The bloodshed has coincided with the run-up and first week of a major army offensive in a Taliban and al Qaida stronghold along the Afghan border.
