The number of fatalities was confirmed by Peshawar Commissioner Riaz Mehsood as rescue operations for people trapped beneath the rubble went into the night.
An emergency had been declared at hospitals citywide, according to the top official, who also claimed that those injured were receiving the finest care possible. The bombing was attributed to the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), a banned organisation.
