An attack on anti-terrorist police headquarters in Pakistan's largest city, Karachi, has left 10 dead and 40 injured, police say.
The suspected car bomb exploded outside the police Criminal Investigation Department (CID) building, reducing parts of it to a pile of rubble.
TV footage showed bloodied victims being taken away on stretchers.
An eyewitness quoted by AP news agency said the blast had left a crater 3m (10ft) wide.
The site of the blast is not far from the Sindh province chief minister's residence, opposite the Sheraton hotel in the south of the city.
Other buildings close by were badly damaged in the blast, which shattered windows within a two-mile radius of the explosion.
The blast took place in the evening rush hour as the city was busy with people leaving work.
No group has immediately claimed responsibility for the attack but the Taliban have been behind a number of similar attacks on police and army compounds in recent years.
Pakistan's commercial capital has a history of violence with sectarian disputes between majority Sunni and minority Shia Muslims regularly flaring.
Karachi has also seen a spate of shootings in recent years, some of them sectarian, which have left many dead. Ethnic divisions are also re-emerging.
