Dhaka: A suicide bomber today blew himself up at a packed mosque of minority Ahmadi community during Friday prayers in northwestern Bangladesh, wounding 10 people, the latest in a series of attacks on minorities.

The blast took place when the mosque at Bagmara town, some 250 kilometres from Dhaka, was packed with worshippers during Friday prayers amid the nationwide celebration of Eid-e-Milad-un Nabi, the birth anniversary of Prophet Mohammad.
