A car bomb rocked Islamabad, Pakistan, killing at least 20 and wounding 20 more. The attack occurred in the evening hours in Islamabad after newly elected President Asif Ali Zardari gave a speech to the nations Parliament saying he would end terrorism.

The devastation from the car bomb was furthered after the nearby Marriott Hotel was set ablaze after igniting a natural gas leak near the site of the blast.

No group has declared responsibility for the attack at this time.
