巴基斯坦拉合尔一个公园周日发生自杀式炸弹袭击，导致至少69人死亡，其中多数为妇女和儿童。巴基斯坦塔利班一分支机构宣称对此负责，并称攻击目标是基督徒。

 

At least 69 people have been killed and over 300 others injured when a suicide bomber hit a public park in Pakistan's east Lahore city.  23 of those killed were children. 

 

A Pakistani Taliban faction claimed responsibility, and said that they targeted Christians.  Sunday's explosion occurred in the parking area of Gulshan-e-Iqbal Park close to children's swings. The park is a popular site for members of Lahore's Christian community. Many went to the park to celebrate the Easter weekend holiday.

 

Many Christians accuse the government of doing little to protect them, saying politicians are slow to take any concrete steps to improve security.
