A suicide bomber killed at least two soldiers and three civilians Saturday at a checkpoint near the gate of an army school in Pakistan, the army spokesman said.

Six people were also wounded in the attack in Nowshehra, a town about 75 miles northwest of Islamabad, Maj. Gen. Waheed Arshad said.

A number of suicide attacks have been carried out recently in several regions along Pakistan’s wild frontier with Afghanistan.

Two suicide attackers hit a military checkpoint in southwestern Pakistan on Thursday, killing 10 people, officials said.
