A bunch of cowardly Taliban gunmen unleashed havoc at a army school in Peshawar province of Pakistan killing atleast 132 people, most of them children. This inhuman attack of Talibans is the most gruesome & the bloodiest terror incident that Pakistan has witnessed since the massacre of its former PM Mrs.Benazir Bhutto. By evening (around 6 PM), the Pakistani security forces have gunned down 6 terrorists. Pakistan's Prime Minister was quoted as saying "This is national tragedy. Those were my kids, my loss". He also called for three-day national mourning. Pakistan's leading newspaper 'Dawn' reported that as many as ten explosions were heard from inside the school campus. The perpetrators TTP (Tehreek-e Taliban Pakistan) told Reuters "We want them to feel our pain. We target their children like they target ours." The International community has united in unequivocally condemning the ghastly attacks of the Islamic terrorists. Indian Prime Minister Mr.Modi branded the attack in Peshawar "a senseless act of unspeakable brutality" and said India shares the pain of Pakistan. The President of Pakistan's PTI party, Mr.Imran Khan who earlier called for 'national shutdown' on Thursday, has called-off his plans & has rushed to Peshwar city.
