Bombs kill dozens in Pakistan as Sharif vows action

At least 45 people have been killed and dozens have been injured by bomb attacks in the Pakistani cities of Quetta and Peshawar.

A suspected suicide bomber killed 28 people in a Shia area of Quetta in the south-west, which has been gripped by sectarian violence.

And an attack on security forces in Peshawar in the north-west left 17 people dead and more than 40 injured.

The violence came as PM Nawaz Sharif pledged new action on terrorism.
