"Investigators combing the blast area found parts of the suicide bomber's torso and parts of the suicide vest. They believe it may have been carried into the compound in a backpack."
The al Qaida-linked group Ansar al-Sunnah, which claims responsibility for the attack, said its 24-year-old suicide bomber started working on the base two months ago.
