A bomb went off in a mosque in Karachi, Pakistan, on Monday, killing a teenager and injuring 15 others.

‏According to Karachi police chief, Mushtaq Meher, two men on a motorcycle lobbed the bomb as women and children sat outside the mosque in the Pakistani port city’s densely populated Liaquatabad district.

‏”One boy is dead and another boy and a woman are in critical condition,” he added.

‏No group has claimed responsibility for the attack yet.

‏Soon after the blast, the worshipers gathered outside the mosque and chanted slogans to protest about the lack of security provided to them in the Islamic month of Muharram.
