A series of attacks on security forces in Pakistan has killed at least 38 people, officials say. Thursday’s violence began in Lahore � Pakistan’s second-largest city. It was long spared the brunt of Pakistan’s unrest but has seen a number of attacks since the start of the year. We get an update on the situation from the BBC’s Aleem Maqbool.
