At least 32 people have been killed and more than 160 injured in an explosion at a mosque during Friday prayers in Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad, officials say.

A suicide bomber detonated a device after approaching the Shia mosque in the Tarlai area of the city, police said.

The Islamic State (IS) group claimed the attack, in a statement posted on its Telegram channel seen by the BBC.

Condemning the attack, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif expressed "deep grief". The country’s president, Asif Ali Zardari, said "targeting innocent civilians is a crime against humanity".
