Two bombs have exploded near a bus station in the central Nigerian city of Jos, killing at least 30 people.

According to IRIB, witnesses who spoke on condition of anonymity said on Thursday one blast went off at an outdoor food stand and the other at the nearby entrance to the Terminus market in the center of the city.
The blasts took place as store owners were closing their shops and Muslims were preparing for evening prayers.
Soldiers and police said they were transferring the injured to hospitals.
Nigerian security sources could not immediately be reached for comment.
A series of bomb blasts were orchestrated by Boko Haram Takfiri terrorists in Jos in May this year, killing 118 people.
At least 120 people lost their lives and about 270 others were injured in attacks that were carried out on November 29, shortly after hundreds of people gathered to listen to a Friday prayers sermon at the Grand Mosque in Kano, situated about 423 kilometers north of the capital, Abuja.
