Pakistani officials say a car bomb has exploded at a gas station in the country’s east, killing at least 20 people.

Officials say Tuesday’s blast in the Punjab province city of Faisalabad wounded at least 100 others. The car bomb ignited gas cylinders at the station, triggering a bigger blast that damaged several government buildings nearby.

Piles of bricks from the destroyed building and scraps of metal from damaged cars littered the scene as rescued workers attended to the wounded.

No one has claimed responsibility for attack.
