At least 15 people have been killed and 100 injured in a massive explosion that ripped through the centre of Pakistan's largest city.
A local journalist has told Sky News that a police station close to the US consulate in Karachi was the prime target and has collapsed.
The explosion struck in a high-security area of the city that is also home to two luxury hotels and the offices of government leaders.
According to Sindh province home minister Zulfiqar Mirza, a gang of around six gunmen first opened fire on the office of the Crime Investigation Department before detonating a massive car bomb.
Shamilla Farooqi, a spokeswoman for the government in Sindh, said: "There are five policemen among the dead."
Witnesses have described a 10ft crater outside the building, which houses a prison facility that may have been holding militants.

The radical Muslims are also reading Bob Woodward’s book Obama’s Wars which details how, why & where we are plotting and scheming to separate the ISI and Pakistan government from Al Q and the Taliban, so they in turn have resolved to bring down the so-called pro-USA government and get the nuke arsenal into radical hands so they can move into Afghanistan and then India. Woodward’s book is so chock full of state secrets it makes you want to cry.
Islam: It’s a blast!
The problem is this: the terrorists are trying to topple the Pakistan government and get control of Pakistan’s nuclear weapons. That is a huge problem for all of us, even if you live in a town with 600 people in Vermont or Nevada.
