There was no claim of responsibility for the attack, which wounded nearly 300 people and caused extensive damage. It came after warnings of retaliation in response to the army's attack on militants in the Swat region in the northwest.
The bomb brought down a government ambulance service building and damaged a nearby office of the ISI.
