ISLAMABAD, November 1 (RIA Novosti) - A suicide bomber crashed a motorbike into a Pakistani Air Force bus early on Thursday, killing at least eight servicemen and injuring 40, local media said.

The blast went off near a military base in Sargodha, northeast Pakistan, while the military personnel were on their way to work.

The deadly explosion is one of a series of attacks on Pakistani military personnel and police officers that have occurred since July, when Pakistani troops stormed the Red Mosque in the capital Islamabad, killing more than 100 Islamic clerics and students.
