The death toll in a car bombing near a Pakistani movie theater climbed overnight to seven, police said Saturday, Associated Press reported. The attack Friday in the main northwestern city of Peshawar also wounded 80 people, police official Farid Ullah said. The attacks came as Taliban in the nearby Swat Valley tried to resist an army operation that has gained praise from the U.S. The army said Friday it killed 17 suspected militants and captured four in the previous 24 hours. It also lost three troops, it said.
