A suspected suicide bomb attack in Pakistan's north-western Swat valley has killed at least 14 police recruits and injured others, officials say.

Disguised as a recruit, the suspected bomber walked into a police base where the cadets were being trained, the BBC reported.

No-one has claimed the attack - the deadliest since the recent Pakistani army offensive there which officials said had driven out Taliban militants.

The Taliban have threatened to avenge the killing of their leader this month.

Baitullah Mehsud was killed in a US drone attack.
